[WRC] Wales Rally GB 2019

You need to follow the road book even on the liaisons. But the finish line should have been after the chicane, it's stupid like this.

No...just the time penalty shouldn`t be that big.

That was in the stage and in the roadbook. This wasn't in the stage and we dunno yet what the roadbook said.

Mikkelsen stalled after the finish line avoiding the hale balls and his codriver asked what happened (with the stall).

Østberg was late in the service, had an oil leak, fixed it, but had to retire with loss of power in the engine

Too much mess there.

Nope. You must not thinking that you smarter than others. Only Ogier is smartass and can make it, all other just follow it after watching on WRC+

I thought it was the wrong line taken at the finish, but then they all seemed to do it so I thought it was just me ...

Mads Østberg
@MadsOstberg

⚠️ Retired ⚠️ An easy service went wrong, and we had an oil leak on our way out as a consequence from the service. We managed to find it and fix it, but now there is another issue. I have no power in the engine. The maximum time is out, so that's it. @walesrallygb is over #gutted

View from Ogier going to the Finish line.

Arrow points left, but on the left side of the green bale is also left from the arrow.

Anyway roadbook/recce should decide, as mentioned the whole setup of putting finish line "ahead" of a chicane is retarded in the first place.
Also great that we don't see more than first 6 cars trough...

It is complete clear what was the correct route. There is even an arrrow sign there pointing to the left. All going straight for sure will be penalized as they got an advantage. Also the liaison starts after the finish timecontrol.

Are we really getting the slow replays and terrible music between stage end and interview for every car now? That's awful. That was for me another thing that made all live better than live tv, the lack of that. Not the case now it seems..
