Anyone heading out to stages in Poland this afternoon, the main road from Mikolajki to Orzysz is closed by an accident 6kms out of Mikolajki
Really like the shots so far, looks like to be a great rally again.
I was spectating the shakedown there, really great crest-corner combination with high speed! Paddon had really wide and attack-ious line, but nearly everyone had great slide angle over that crest, most impressive ones among Paddon were Ogier, JML, Neuville, Henning and Holowczyc. To my eye Citroens were really calm, as were Fiestas too. Hyundais seemed to have some tendency to oversteer but nothing big, could be down to driving style too.Quote:

PS. To my ear DS3 R5 sounds awesome!
One quick shot from SD junction when I was leaving:

as for now quite nice weather, sunny, with some wind. crews heading for ceremonial start and then 3 stages (incl. sss).
Yes, initial forecast failed completely. Currently it looks like there will be no significant rain until Saturay evening (I do not have longer reliable prediction). There is very high rain risk on Lithuanian stages today in the evening and tonight but I hope it will not be too bad. Sky looks really black in some places.Quote:

Tanak at the end of the stage must be very near of Rendina.Hopefully not so much dust.
Why JML is first on the road?
Poor start by the Finns.. :(
Better by Meeke & Kubica. :)
Ogier is first on the road.
On wrc.com splits for SS2, it's Latvala first Ogier second. Glitch or explanation?Quote:
