Arrest them now or ban Rally Croatia for ever.

There 0 chance they are not arrested already. You can see cops there in the video

Fourmaux going very fast with Fiesta rally2 car, very good PS from him.

Seems like both Ford cars have improved on tarmac..

After that incident I don’t intend to come and spectate the event in 2024, I’ve thought of doing so but that was before Breen so coupled with that & the incident with Ogier in 2021 it’s a hard pass from me. I honestly hope we won’t see this event next year on the calendar, yes the landscapes & the stages are nice but this could’ve easily been another disaster. At the very least I’d give this event a red flag for them to sort out things like these.

Yep they have

If only they would get rid of all the gremlins

Rally2 - nice to see:
* Pajari is driving with head, showing good speed and does not go over the limit to take risks whihc he can not handle
* Fourmaux + M-Sport Rally2 car showing competitive speed

Quite confused what Solberg was doing there. Probably half of stage-end interview's contained the word "shit". In context of describing driving or what kind of road condition he wants.

I understand you concerns regarding spectators behaving like morons. But what could have the organisers possibly done about Ogier being complete asshole on the public road?

Oliver just had a wrong set up. His car was tailored for mud and rain, like we had last year. Hopefully Oliver can learn from this.

I think skoda should add a center latch on the hood. The hood flaps up and down like crazy, must mess with the aero

Yeah the event really grew on me despite my early criticism of it replacing tarmac classics. But as I live not to far a way and it was a fabulous event to watch last year I really hope it sticks around a bit longer as I coudn't go this year but would like to go again in the future.

TLDR: Hopfully it doesn't "kill" the event.

For Ogier not much, but it’s all these elements together.
