Breen actually drove pretty well today I thought. That puncture was one of the unlucky ones (well the tyre of the rim)Quote:

Yeah, in fairness to Breen, without the puncture he could have been somewhere between the Hyundais, which is kinda OK under the circumstances.
Yeah I think without the puncture he would have been around Neuville, which would have been fine. Tomorrow will be a tough day for him.
but is it really pure "bad luck" if out of 12 Rally1 Cars in 6 Gravel Stages HE is the only one who gets a puncture??Quote:

just got back from a fantastic friday... i will not visit the rally tomorrow because i respect my self and i will not become a dog now... the organisers can shove the worthless stupid stages of tomorrow up their retarded asses.
the safety was very forgiving today thank god... so no cancellations.
i witnessed the biggest jump of my life today... and at the spot there were maybe 10-15 people and maybe 1 or 2 pros... the rest of the pros were probably taking pictures of flowers and logs and maybe a car on a hairpin... if the stage is included next year there are going to be x10 people there.
so from tomorrow i will follow the rally with you guys in here... lets see if you survive.
some unedited samples from today, full album sunday.

in general the cars are equally fast as last year which is good, or at least its hard to find any huge differences in speed with naked eye.
tanak kalle neuville Loeb and Loubet were good, breen was overly agressive. the rest are smaller dogs.
huge improvement for Loubet in the ford in terms of speed to the spectator... Hyundai is a bad car, but veryy powerful probably the most powerful. i feel sorry for tanak and neuville.
lets see if Loeb and Loubet can hold on to podium places today... i do not think so but i would like so.
Quite a wake up for the drivers. 33km stage being the first
the long stage is starting, let see what will happen
