When was the last WRC round Mikkelsen led after day 1?
Why bone dry? Forest sections are already damp and if it rains a lot, it wont dry up until the afternoonQuote:

Australia 2017 and then just two rallies before Catalunya 2017.Quote:

Tanak is on Saturday's startlist.
If I think correct then.. if no rally1 retires on SS9, then it would be logical for him to retire after SS9.
(Sorry for many if's and retires :D )
If all rally1 cars complete SS9, then there is no way to get any car in front of him and no point to waste brand new engine.. but we'll see.
Bone dry reference was about the weather, not road surfaceQuote:

On SS7 you can see the police heli hovering over that spot at 4.6km in the live broadcast. Pernilla Solberg talked about that to Dirtfish.
Today there were 7 stages, Tanak got +70min penalty.Quote:

Okay, nvm.. too complicated story.
Sadly, that's trueQuote:

I will sound like an as**ole ofc, but IMO, these places on the inside of the corner aren't that dangerous. I have seen worse places on the outside. If u are standing on some (bang?) up the road, you know, its quite common thing especially in Finland, no one cares. I do think that it is a bit overreacted here compared to other rallies... You will disagree with me, but its my opinion.Quote:

Do you see a bank higher than the road here, is that what you're saying? One that will stop a car going 100kph and will protect those people?Quote:

Are you on the stages that you can say who is causing the problems?Quote:

just imagine that you have travelled to Poland, and all stage you have attemped are interrupted.
Ridiculous.
Why don't these fucking idiots not realise they are ruining the rally, standing in stupid places. It's not worth it just to get a cool youtube clip
I was *this* close going…glad I didn’t.Quote:

Seeing people who travelled complain that next time they will only watch online and hearing online people complaining about people on site.
Is the future of (top) rallying stages where spectators are forbidden or only in fan zones?
Problem is in the forest sections or non spectator areas, some idiots wait a bit back from the road when Mouton goes through and the 0cars. Then move forward too close
Actually, long time ago we went to Rally Sweden, must have been early 00´, we went to three stages - all was cancelled. (The year there were a collision on Fredriksberg, etz)Quote:

Shame for the driver waiting on the line. All pumped up and then trying to get ready again.
Honestly, what were Hyundai thinking letting Mikkelsen drive Monte Carlo & Croatia, I really do hope they bring him as a 4th car in the next Gravel events if only for him to get more experience under his belt.
Will the next stage be delayed?
Suninen, Sordo and Lappi all had bad results on tarmac as well. So they tried someone else and he was pretty much same as those 3.Quote:
