Road looks like it’s really deteriorating badly already in places, second run could be awful.

Solberg thoroughly beaten by Fourmaux.
Re Fourmaux, M-Sport only have a skeleton service crew here due to covid travel restrictions.
Solberg's car crabbing apparently
Sounds like Solberg's car was crabbing at the stop control, could explain the poor time compared to Fourmaux.
Everyone had four softs on this stage anywayQuote:

It's his 1st stage on gravel in a WRC car - lets not expect too much. Especially on an event like thisQuote:

Phew... very, very difficult stage to start the rally - even tougher than expected! Exploding head We had some big bumps and a 19G impact marked on the FIA tracker which shows what these roads are like! Need to do some checks before SS3 now I think Wrench #SafariRallyKenya
Ss3 Will be totally different
He hit a bank with the rear after a big bump.Quote:

Ugh not good news for Oliver
Ogier all over the place
Ogier went to push. Or making "wrong lines" for others to follow... ;)
It's looking awesome! So different challenge
What are you talking about? Its awesome watching these cars blast on those bumpy straightsQuote:

Overshoot for Neuville too.
Decent splits for Thierry considering all that time lost with the overshoot
His pace is... something else. He'll win it all back and still beat Evans.Quote:

Looks like a broken damper for Seb
Ogier rear susp looks shot.
Ogier in trouble
Just two stages in, and already near-fatal damage to two of the world rally cars.
Anyone want to place a bet on none of the WRC cars finishing the rally without needing rally 2?
Ott on a push
Yep !!Quote:
