I think some will miss the things they constantly ranted about last years.

I don't now how we will miss wrc.com. The rally radio works off I Rally app, and I guess it will be easy to put a link from the rally's website. As for the timing the whole IRC rallies had equally good results, also I guess the Michelin website will have links as well. Some of us on here are old enough to remember a wrc without North One Sport, and for what it's worth it was good back then.

I can't imagine there was any kind of live timing before ISC / NOS. Haven't they been doing it for 11 years or something?

What I meant was there was a perfectly good WRC before NOS. True regarding the timing, this is something new in the last 11 years, but IRC and other rallies have a good system. You should have seen Safari (historic) rally last November, members of the public could log on with Google Earth and track the cars, service vehicles and helicopters. Dont get sucked into the journalistic hype that WRC cant survive without NOS, other events like Dakar have this "live timing" and outside rallying check out the Tour De France cycle race to see what they have in terms of internet coverage.

True, there's any amount of companies that can do this stuff. :up:

I have no worries about live timing. ACM always has had it in event website Automobile Club de Monaco. If it's true that Patricksoft will do timekeeping in RMC, than results will be also on their website PatricK Soft and maybe also on FFSA | Fédération Française du Sport Automobile. After that other sites like Výsledky Rallye: Mistrovství svìta or eWRC-results.com - archive and online results from WRC and rally etc. will have it also and we can count with Michelin as mentioned before.

Live-timing? How about taking times in the stages in the first place.

I thought it was already been confirmed that live timing will be assured by the WRC people for Monte Carlo

I guess you didn't read the news. Monte Carlo is going to be timed via the "Honor System."

:crazy:

NOS is a horror system.
