That's the same area as the 2010 WRC event? Very different.Quote:

Let´s discuss stagecondition more after the rally. Let´s hope breaking cars will not destroy the numbers of drivers reaching finish...
I saw the Yota's come in after SD. The lower sill aero and fender wells were completely destroyed after just 12 km of SD. Imagine how much of a beating these cars are going to take over the weekend.
The ford guys were adding new underbody protection and new wheel well guards as they were pretty much destroyed also. One thing I noticed during SD was pretty much every time increased ride height :). I guess they start out low and move up in increments...
I also met a gentlemen who is one of the organizers of Safari Rally and he was out here scoping things out to see how the rally is run. He mentioned that they are looking at current standards in order to be better prepared for next years candidate event.
So far service was not all that great, but maybe tomorrow will be better?? No food at service for spectators and very few drink options besides red bull bar. Service park was pretty lame compared to Finland/Germany/Mexico where you have music, tons of places to sit and plenty to eat.
it has nothing to do with speed at which you go through rocks, and that is the problem...Quote:

Shakedown for @RallyTurkey complete and it's going to be a rough one, but our EcoBoost-powered Ford Fiesta WRC is #BuiltFordTough 💪 #WRC #FordPerformance #RallyTurkey https://t.co/L8s1hanpTw
Post-Shakedown:
Breen stated he took time to adapt to gravel again as he had no PET.
Latvala said the Yaris was running maximum ride-height.
Neuville claimed the i20 felt strong and well-set-up for the rough roads.
Suninen said tyre management was going to be the key to a good rally.
that is the biggest joke ever... the people vote for politicians that create the problems... so yes the politicians of a country very much show the nature of the people.Quote:

The rally and atmosphere have been very pleasant. The coast line is riddled with tourists (mainly Brits and Germans). I don't see anyone scared or acting bizarre. The locals are very kind especially outside of Marmaris and the organizers have been extremely friendly. Even the stage workers introduced themselves and told us to have a blast. People are drinking beer everywhere so its pretty laid back. Actually, in Finland or Germany you are not allowed to drink on the stages right? I'm not sure about the drinking laws here, but we saw plenty of people drinking and none of them were arrested. My only complaint was that the service park was quiet without many food options. That might change as today was shakedown.
Lets try to be positive and enjoy the rally.

"There are so many big rocks out there," he said. "You're going to have to hold your tongue in the right way and drive over them. If it's your lucky weekend, it's your lucky weekend.
"It's definitely going to be a lottery this one.
"We will get a bit of a gain with the sweeping, but what we gain there we'll lose with the rocks being pulled out that we have to dodge - and some of those are going to be so big that you do have to drive around them. We're definitely talking about football-sized rocks.
