What a joke.
Just when the BRC was actually getting good they go and shoot themselves in the foot.
I can't believe the organisers can be that cash strapped. There is enough money in the sport to buy and run all these R5 cars suddenly.

SS6 Bogey time beaten.. :(
Well it's got to be IMS - they're hardly short of cash. If they want to be involved and run the BRC, then do it properly!Quote:

Sadly, the event has become a farce.
Congrats to Ahlin. After Evans' problem I think he would have been the rally winner regardless of bogey times. I think he might even have been quickest through SS1. Not sure about the other two lost stages. But it still leaves a very sour taste in the mouth. Glad I went to the previous two rounds and not this one.
Disappointing oversight and I stand by my original post that the organisers need more high level help on these events. The fans in the stages certainly aren't a consideration this year, so you'd better make doubly sure the competitors are happy.
As a spectator Simmi what you'd have been watching would have been exactly the same.Quote:

I've done it and won't be doing anymore, its hard work and outside your immediate team its totally thankless.
As well as the rally win Fredrik Aahlin leads the BRC after playing his 'joker'. Ahlin 65 with Evans second with 60 points.
SS6 - Elfyn Evans completed in 5.28.1, the nominal time given to him was 5.52.0. Nearly 24 seconds faster over 6.83 miles !
Evans was significantly quicker than Ahlin on the other two stages were the bogey was beaten but Ahlin would still have won. Without bogeys Evans would been second rather than third but the rest of the top five would be unchanged.Quote:
