So maybe spectators involved? Hope not.
Not good for the drivers who completed the stage, more tire wear than the rest.
Stage 9 cancelled now, I’m sorry but Oliver should’ve gone back to a rally2 car, do a season or two with it and come back when he’s a bit older.
Handling wise it's true but there are other people in the traffic, and visibility from these cars in traffic is bad. You're sitting low and can't see much to the sides, and the mirrors are small (if you still have them on after hitting haybales on stages).Quote:

Did we have any footage from the start of the stage anyyway? It's a long stage and they can cover only a section of it.Quote:

#WRC ���� UPDATE @OliverSolberg01 & @EAERallying had a spin in SS9 and went off the road damaging the rear of the car. The exhaust caught fire and the rear of the car started burning. The fire was put out shortly after. We will recover the car and investigate the damage.
SS9 notional times for Tänak, Breen, Rovanperä, Evans
It seems it doesn’t matter which tyre you have
Although I think wet is better for late startes with the dirtier road

The fire triggered the red light on the hybrid unit and the car will have now go through the related FIA safety procedures. The issue will be investigated further.
Rovanperä took it very easy, 10.6 slower than Tänak

EP with early spin !
Oliver's off yesterday at 4:30 in SS6 saw they missed it in the copy paste highlights
SS11 will be hard for those on softs...
What a half spin by Lappi, will be a carnage stage out there for the crews taking 4 softs.
So slippery. Tanak and Kalle with a great tyre choice
Full wet runners should smash the others in this stage.
Will definitely matter here, good Ott took those four full wets ey?Quote:
