These days... you want to watch some footage from 80s? :) I think this "these days" is more and more related to everyone recording and sharing so other just getting to know about those stupid ones.Quote:

Thankfully nobody was injured badly
There's a few videos on YouTube of todays action , it seems there were a lot of clowns about today, with folk like these it's only a matter of time until there's a serious accident involving spectators, and the guys making the videos as well, some are standing in places i wouldn't even put a remote camera never mind myself.
This is ridiculous. Standing on the outside of a corner at the same level as the road is plain madness. Blind luck that nobody was killed.Quote:

This year I was able to spectate only on Friday.
Stage Livadia, once more a very good stage. I was in a technical twisty place of about 100 km/h, left, to right, to left.
Kalle quite careful, not all over the place due to cleaning. Quite conservative.
Neuville was pushing like hell. Maybe not the optimum lines, a bit wide, but for sure the most violent. Very spectacular.
Ogier quite sideways, surprisingly for him, not so violent but very very fun to watch.
Tanak, just a killer. Very fast, very efficient. Not very sideways, sliding a little with all for wheels. Previous years was more aggressive. This Ford... I cannot believe these technical issues.
Katsuta quite brave and spectacular maybe not optimum lines, but he has improved during these years.
Athanassoulas by far, I insist, by far the best Greek driver. You can see that his pass was the only Greek that deserved to be compared with the best world class drivers of RC2.
Taking into consideration his age and that he only drives once per year, the 1" - 1.2" per kilometer is quite good.
I hope you agree.
Not sure If I've seen this been done before, some new engine rule or just for JWRC?

Seems like some of the spectators have been idiots.
Hopefully the rest of the weekend can go okay.
I can imagine some youtube vids will make it look like folk are even closer than they actually are though. Twice during watching AllLive, I noticed a camera pod on the racing line or inches from it....., but spectators safe up a bank on the inside of a corner
Total idiots.Quote:

Most of the spectators are quite good, have logical thinking and behavior.
But the percentage of these morons is little higher here.
I really hope that they will use this video in order to show how easy is to happen, hopefully some of them will be convinced.
If Scrutineer is present when you cut the seal and re-seals afterwards it is allowed to replace the headgasket/cylinder head.Quote:

Thanks for the correction. I knew it was only the engine block that was sealed and couldn't be replaced during the rally. I assumed the sealing was from head to block.
Delayed again..
If these get cancelled (2x24km) then no full points?
" An updated start time is TBC." Edit: new start time is 7:40am
Somewhat frustrating to wake up early for stage to be delayed for half an hour... Could have slept more...
07:40am local time they’ll start.
Middle part of the stage is very muddy
Solberg why didnt start?
TANAK COMMENT
"Quite OK. Seems like the guys have put some safe mode in, as it's running on some really low power and boost."
lol. Like always, something wrong right after they come out of serviceQuote:

Its seems will we finally see flat out Mikkelsen today.... 20sec faster than next WRC2 car. Too sad Solberg isnt driving today to match the pace.
all the Toyota quicker than Hyundai, did the Toyota upgrade?
What's happening? is his jack broken?
Water pump issues which led to other problemsQuote:
