40, 50 or 60 minutes behind doesn't make any difference.Quote:

Still have to follow their roadbook. But i don't understand why they can't drive ss9 then.Quote:

Honestly, I feel bad for the spectators out there waiting in the sun just to see no cars passing by, as people said above, such excellent organization, no wonder Ferrari are leading this year's championship, oh wait...never mind.
The car #49 which caught fire on the first pass of the stage could not be removed within the available time and meant that SS8 had to be cancelled
SS9 cancelled due to difficulties in moving the competition cars from the regroup to SS9 following the cancellation of SS8
All gathered in start road of ss9 and look like lost kids :D No idea how to get home.
If I recall correctly, Rally Sardegna organizers are not the same people as Ferrari team managers, could be wrong though ;)Quote:

Seems like an early call so has to be something to do with services or safety assurance.
Wait...what happened with Teemu?
Broke suspension on the final part of SS7 and couldn't fix itQuote:

Was able to drive to the service. If not retired after the stage would still be 3rd in WRC2. They should always remember that you never know what will happen in these south-European events. It´s possible that two last stages will be cancelled due to the safety concerns.Quote:

Cant be that hard to stop the stage, clean up, start the stage again. Its all about planning!
This is a case for the clerk of the course and safety crews to plan for most eventualities.
Bingo game for tomorrow, when you get 3 in a row scream Pirelli!
Every direction counts.

I was one of those numerous people waiting on the stage for SS9. Thanks to WRC live I was informed that SS8 was cancelled and all cars initially were directed to the start of SS9 but we started to smell a rat when none of the official cars came by. And when WRC live finally broke the news with the cancellation of stage SS9 then some utterly confusion broke out. It took ome 10 minutes before the cancellation got through the radio of the marshalls. The internet vs radio waves.
Shame the day turned out like this because so far I've been loving how the itinerary sounds. Two different loops of stages per day sounds to me like a very spectator friendly format, and together with the proper stage in the city this has been sounding like a very great way to host an event.
Too good to be true sadly, but a promising concept.

First WRC2 car on the road (Suninen) had worst conditions today with 2 min gap to the Rally1 car before him.Quote:

You can see the burning car in this vid https://youtu.be/OKxd3dSip34
https://youtu.be/ukLCuinfd84
Probably going to jinx it.
Again a good day as a Loubet-fan. Let's hope it lasts the whole rally!
and this burnt car was not possible to remove in 2,5 hours....the fire was out and the Hyundai still was on his wheels!!! WHAT a SHAME to the Organisers.....Quote:

Those can't be fixed, if it's broken it's broken ?
or can they open those seals between rallies ?
(I know that during rally it's forbidden to brake those seals and fix parts,)
What I mean:
Is Hyundai (Neuville and possibly Tänak) in trouble because they don't have any spare ones left ?
Rovanperä with 1 spare? who even allowed such thing in Toyota..
Didn’t they say they’d start 10 minutes earlier?
Neuville also with 1 spare.
really slow stage, avg 70kmh for Evans
