She stopped, sent them away. Marshall's came and after a few minutes the spectators all were standing there again. Marshall's where the worst I've ever seen at that spot. Overall the marshall's were below par but especially at the Terranova jump they were horrible.

Had a great time on the island, did not need the factor 50 sunscreen that much ;-) Great spots, great food and some Ichnusa beers.

There has been almost no other news in Finland during this week, because one animal philosopher started to discredit and blame Rovanperä, when he hit a cow, but it´s alive!

point is they were not marshalls. i've heard rumors that most of them were steward hired from other sport events ( i.e stadiums).
only a minority were real marshalls.

That makes a lot of sense, was clear they had no feeling for rallying whatsoever.

To be honest, whatever the law says about hitting somebody's animal on the road in that country should apply the same on a rally stage. If it's a wild animal then probably not but a cow is a domestic animal.
