SS8: TANAK "Ninth fastest and he drops to fourth. His tyres are worn down to the canvas in places. With this and his brake problems, he is very disappointed.''
Me too. :(
heh, me too but a long way to go and if he keeps the speed tomorrow morning as today morning then he will be in the lead again.
Same photographer.. BORL ;)

Lefebvre seems to be out....
Also Kruuda lost 1min 13 sec at previous the long one.
Lefebvre engine.
From this vid on SS2 you can see how much the dust and gravel reduces as more cars pass... quite a bit less by the time Tanak & Kubica go through.

still so angry that it is VW 1-2-3 again in the end of the day. Tänak is always unlucky and it seems it will follow him the rest of the career. Pretty sure he would be in top3 or in the lead if he hadnt brake problems.
looks like it will be like that 'till the end of the season, I say if Ogier doesn't encounter problems in germany, he can take the title there.

Tänak: <"We will fix our problems and flat out immediately in the morning":D
I start to lose my patience with Mr Neuville... really disappointing year, but on the other hand Paddons performance is really nice so the replacement could be easy.
i agree about Neuville, has been very disappointing after sweden. Paddon and Tänak are the ones to watch at the moment i think.
So, 1st day over; nothing dramatical happened.....1-2-3 for VW, Ogier already in the lead although he swept away some gravel as a front runner.
We need to praise the performance of the next three drivers (Ott, Hayden and Robert), all others average...but I suppose that all can not be between top six places. The race is still long and I'm sure we can expecting some surprises...
I'm definetely expecting more from Meeke.
World Rally Cars tyres knackered for the superspecial?
He also found some food! ;)

I like it to mix things up, but it shouldn't be the main priority if you go there as a photographer.
Tastes differ. I personally love those kinds of pics. André and his crew are the best :).

That shows why the spectator area is identified. The car did not stray into the spectator zone. Lucky the spectators who went into "car" zone weren't hit
I think N.O.T. needs a woman...or Snickers :D N.O.T, You are not You when You are hungry.
of course you need variety but if you go to a rally and 7 out of 10 places you visit are based on the scenery rather than the action offered then you simply should just go to grand canyon/lake tahoe and taj mahal and some weddings instead of a rally....
pictures from pros nowadays are more appropriate to be used by the countrys tourism ministry to promote the country rather than the rally...
for example take a look at the spots Martinjns,kksf,bunnings capture the footage and pictures, they are 1000 gazzilion times better than those of some pros (some are still really really good)... the aforementioned guys are true hardcore rally spectators who know what rallying is about thats why their footage are amazing, they do research of each stage they visit and it shows rather than following the organisers instructions, they know how a car is going to behave on each spot, if you let a pro photographer choose a spot he will probably choose a handbrake hairpin because their perception of the sport is really really poor and it is very sad if you take into account the amount of events they have been into, and then you have them complain about the photographers that offer their photos for free...
I had the priveliege to join one of those "pros" in a couple of events, and I can tell you that I recceed the events from start to finish as if I was a proper competitor, even if it was the 3rd time on that event... and many of the places were chosen by judging in advance how the car would behave...
while observing his work, I ofte3n tended to question his decisions on the photos he would take because of my "fan" aproach: we want all the photos to be what they call "action" photos... but I learned to understand why he makes those decisions and why other kind of photos are also needed...
I think you're being a little short sighted by a lack of knowledge of how they do their work and who they work for...
How about fruits...
