Peugeot already had 17' rims I think. This change will help Fiesta to overcome the weight increase.

Sulland, it's not one sided game of costs. As you get higher in the overal standings you also get to better sponsorship deals because sponsors simply want to be exposed. Therefore you can't simply...

Also Bonato as non priority. Pity for both.

Usually the travel restrictions are not based on the nationalities but on the country you travel from and to. Also Evans could have stayed in quarantine in France or whatever rule they have.

What? Monaco is going to declare war on UK?

I know it's just a regulatrity event but still today was the first ever (sort of) Dakar stage victory for Škoda by Ondřej Klymčiw :D The rally B-class 130LR which was never designed for off road...

Loeb still in the dunes...

Prokop today 2 punctures and 3 broken driveshafts (third some half kilometers before finish).

In the post, you reacted to, I didn't speak about EV but about the automotive industry taking a path which is very unsuitable for the current homologation rules.

That's not only about EV. The pressure on emissions makes the engines very difficult to addapt for race use. Euro 7 is coming and there seems to be nothing which can stop it from going into...

The thing with the stock-based cars is actually the simples of all. Majority of cars coming in the stock market in the future will be useless for conversion into rallycars therefore rallying will...

I agree with this.

According to the interviews with our crews (which I watched now) it was only the first waypoint today which was tricky and caused this funny photos and videos. There was a hidden turn somewhere...

Yes but I don't think this makes a difference.

By the way Benavides won this stage with a big crash and finished with broken nose.

Yes, sometimes they have problems to find the waypoints but that happened in the past too, just maybe not that often. Also take into account that due to the geography South America was probably...

AFAIK Since last year they get the roadbook only before the start so that they can't prepare beforehand or have someone checking the route with hellicopter. That was a huge advantage of the works and...

On the other hand I don't know what could be done against those high speeds. You can't build a hundreds of kilometers long stage in the desert without it being fast. It's impossible. You can do that...

Have you ever been to a rally? Where do you want to put those trailers? In at least half of the stages around the world there is nowhere to place some trailers dozens of kilometers around the stages...

Very brutal stage today. A lot of crews out or in troubles.

Rallying in principle didn't need them but without them it would be just a minor sport. It's them who made it big thing with big money. So, yes, it can run without them but be prepared that the...

Even if you have hundreds of people dedicated to rally it means you need to take away number of them from WRC project and relocate them to Rally3. In the end it means you sacrifice something you...

Yes, of course. The car is the system.

You might not believe but one of the biggest contributors to reliability issues is vibrations and resonances. Those could be especially tricky because...
