Is the superspecial on asphalt or gravel?
It's on gravel and Michael K has just set fastest PWRC time
Edit: sorry it's on tarmac
How is these ss1 and ss2 driven because there is now times also in SS2 and it supposed to be same stage?
Could they use something similar to FRC Hämeenlinna with first 20 something cars going through SS1 and then they coming back to start and stage continues with every other car being SS1 and every other SS2? Good for spectators, I think.Quote:

@mirek, The ss today is on tarmac and the cars are on gravel tires
And Harry Hunt jumps back in to the rally lead!
I think it's to save time of the crews. Now they have two runs in 15 minutes. Otherwise they would be there for much longer time.Quote:

Best time for Ogier on SS1, and yes, there will be another loop (SS2)
That R3 DS3 is awesome in the first stage! Seemed somuch faster and louder then the PWRC cars!!
The super special stage is a load of bull. People have to wait half hour to cross the track, there is at least a kilometer to walk to get to a few good corners to photograph and for spectators to get To the "grandstands"!!!
Real action starts tommorow.
yeah it was stupid.. i was stuck on the wrong side of the road, and as a result I couldnt take any pictures as it was the wrong side for lighting!Quote:

I think I will just go and have dinner the next two nights. SSS is not worth it.
I actually wonder what the drivers think of it.. As they are coming down to the tight twisty bit at the southern end, if you are car 2 or 3, then you blinded turning into the right hander with the car infronts headlamps. You could clearly see some drivers braking more than usual or taking two bites into the corner because they just couldn't see.
What is starting order for tomorrow?
World Rally Championship - Results - Rally AustraliaQuote:

He must say something.
Well a few of us on here told you to save your money and go to NZ next year! :D
haha, i'm happy so far, but even for media to access the SSS you have to walk for ever! Tomorrow will be a test on stages...
I'm sure it will be a great rally with the media pass, its people with normal tickets I'm worried about! :D
Have fun tomorrow!!!
I know :(

Nice photos.
