    People were killed, but I must say that their idea to stand there was extremely stupid...
    Was there any safety man?

    I just watched a video interview with a witness who said that people did not respect warnings of route marshalls.....

    In the ideal world..yes..stage should be stopped till specators leave the forbidden area.
    In the real world.... I can´t imagine how to manage that every now and then......People will always stand where they shouldn´t be....

    Or should we put rally into circuits?

    Tricky questions,even trickier answers....

    Tragic...

    I Belgium (certainly in Flanders) they would cancel the stage, everybody would be nagging about it, but this should be a lesson for everyone!

    I definitely agree....from time to time a lesson (I mean stopping the stage) should be learned. On the other hand, not everyone follows rally regularly,so not everyone gets the info about a lesson to be learned.

    And what can a route marshall do when there is no time for stopping the stage? ....e.g. when people enter the forbidden area shortly before the drivethrough of a car....

    But I´m not saying that there ´s no space for safety improvements, there always is.
