I admit, i have watched just few mins of anothe wrc rally on row via wrc+ - this time it was heli-shoot from Kalle going on long streight, then breaking and going another long streight. Then came other things to do and I even forgot anout this rally. This worries me bcs I have been following wrc for long and had never had so little interest.... I even have somewhere those glancy WRC magazine copies from early 2000th.... I hope Est and Fin events would rise some wrc rally passion again.
That is correct, this Safari thing was just another addition to that legend and was more about the round shape of 90-series Saabs rather than a source for Erik's nickname.Quote:

Is that fit SS8?
Evans stopped after water splash and lost 40 seconds
Lappi now in third and he is going for a 4th straight podium already this season.
Ogier once again showing youngsters how to drive fast..
and Evans didn't learn from Sardegna water splash.. same mistake here
Ott seems to have lost all the motivation to drive
I think he will pull the plug after this season...
Well, not lunatic, but he got the name from a SSS in the Swedish Midnight Sun Rally in 63´I think. he rolled his car and a famous radioreporter gave him the name from that.Quote:

Loubet drives like a legend. Easy to predict that 2040 WRC will be a great battle between Loubet, Serderidis and Huttunen. 🤩🤩🤩
I wonder how long does it take for Ott to burn bridges with Wilson/Millener?
Seems inevitable
Joke of a carQuote:

It's not a malfunction as he apparently used all fluid up.Quote:

Actually I give credit to them making it so far
Urgh safety reasons thrown in again
Shame for SolbergQuote:

I see we are having Estonian therapy session again. Maybe we need a thread especially for bashing Ford, predicting Tanaks retirement and declaring the championship over. :p
Ok clear. Will also leave
I wrote he has no motivation and the other guy wrote he predicts he will retire and it’s bashing and therapy right away although I wrote also some other things yesterday and also today to keep this place alive cause it’s dead as f**k
Stage started again, Kajetanowicz into WRC2 lead and another puncture for Solberg it seems
Why did they stop the stage?
It was just safarirally, wasn't it?

I really don't understand the constant bashing of Ford/M-sport from some, they trying to keep 3 teams in the WRC, should they just quit?
I hope not.
But its clear that Rally1 is dead, this set of rules isn't doing any good for the sport.

Pretty sure it was spectators causing it, some could be seen on live images on muddy straight very close to the road, on a place with high possibility of car doing anything random.Quote:

Problem for the old man, the Puma sounds terrible.
It even breaks when driven at the speed of a tractor
The helicopter camera makes such a difference to the viewing experience.
Caused by the water splash. They can even affect the Toyotas like in Sardinia.Quote:

.. but they are not in the finish either.
Seemed like nothing to do with the water though.Quote:

Same problem as shakedown ffs lol
Propshaft again like in SD.
Feel sorry for Lappi - he's having a decent season
Gutted for Lappi, he's been doing a far better job this season than his results are showing. Hopefully Estonia and Finland will bring better luck for him
Toyota 1-2-3-4 (again).
I have no words guys
