This has to be in top 3 of worst micky mouse stages ever created.
I am not quite sure. What I am sure is that the camera work for the first car was epic fail.Quote:

Terrible stage....both for us who looks on WRC-tv and the spectators i think.
Nice shakedown today :D

Problems for Oliver with front screen fogging.
What the heck is happening to the coverage this evening, all over the shop so far.
Nice to see Solberg stage end commentary again :D

Unfortunately in this weather and in the dark the stage is really boring for spectating in TV.
But the close up zoom-filming isn't doing it any favors

The big problem so far is that they can not seem to be able to switch the correct cameras in sequence at all and half of their cameramen seem to have huge issues (not being able to follow cars, then zoom in too much with half car out...)Quote:

The R2 Fiesta on full song sound like a 2 stroke SAAB!
I like it!
Stage probably already much more slippery as Breen and Tidemand was quite slower than Petter Solberg in R5.
Petter faster than Breen and Tidemand
So far not a single shot from onboard any car.
For what it is I think it's pretty good in person. I'm right at the South of the circuit. TV coverage looks terrible though!
My video, corner at 00:27 and 01:17 has been good, especially with WRCs. This is Oliver Solberg: https://youtu.be/8yUXs-2AvYM
Yep, looks great from that view. If only you were doing the camera work instead!Quote:

Meeke looks so smooth there, even left-foot braking on straights to control wheel-spin towards the end of the stage.
One can clearly win a lot of time on this short show stage.
Not sure this works as a night stage? Iconic British circuit but you can't really see it.
Happy to be in my Welsh cottage with a beer ready for tomorrow.
Agreed, three hours earlier would have been better for me.Quote:

Colin: Why did the engine stall?
Ott: Because the engine stalled.
:D:D:D
Tänak Ott - Järveoja Martin

Rain is getting much heavier
pre-event press conference https://www.fia.com/news/wrc-rally-gb-press-conference
This bit was interesting
as it seems we're in for a rainy morning but a non-rainy afternoon.Quote:
Let’s see what the weather does. If it does rain, it can be more consistent and wash [the mud off] the road – and if the sun comes out, the grip can get worse and it can be the most tricky.
Petter on Pirellis in a wet GB, rings a bell.
It's quite a good stage but it really should've been run in daylight for fans & viewers benefit.
Shakedown back to Llandudno and onto Liverpool could've been done by early afternoon... then started Oulton Park by 4.30pm.
All rallies always start at the same time. Also, there’s media stuff during the day plus recceing of the super specialQuote:

The action was good, though I can see from the videos linked earlier that there were better spots if I'd had more time to explore.
In the afternoon I went to watch the ceremonial start - not usually my kind of thing, but I live in Liverpool and the office where I work is only 500m from the rally start - so it felt quite surreal watching the cars drive across the road and park up at the place where I often go for a walk in my lunch hour! Went onto the rooftop balcony of the Mersey Ferries building (for the cost of a Pepsi in their bar) to get some panoramic photos, though unfortunately the sun had gone in by then.
Dyfnant tomorrow I think - can't be bothered getting up at 3am to do Elsi first (and get soaked in the process), so I'll probably just stay in Dyfnant all day and have a walk through the stage between runs.
