    Štajf broke wheel in the last stage and that cost him victory. It would be the first ever victory for Polo R5 but it didn't happen.

    Pech's crash: https://youtu.be/Yk31b63IA7U

    It's not visible in the video but he lost control during heavy braking on a wide straight before the corner.

    If Stajf was able to lead the rally in his first event in this car, the new Polo seems to have a big potential!

    He wasn't with his usual co-driver, so maybe communication issues there?

    You don't need much of co-driving here. Most of the time You do laps on the same street circuit. I think it may have more to do with Hankook tyres which he didn't trust. I don't know.

    Despite being forced to tackle treacherous stage conditions with standard tyres fitted to their Ford Fiesta R5,

    Seems to be confirmed he was on stock tyres but in the moment I have no idea why. In 2011 local crews used stock tyres when there was snow because they worked better than Monte Carlo style tyres without studs (those are not allowed). That time this team was there with PG Andersson and they lost huge time with MC Michelin tyres compared to others on stock ones. So maybe they thought it would be the same again. But this time there was little to no snow compared to 2011.

    New videos of Pech's crash. This time some people were veeeery lucky. Usually the problem with Prague is that there are thousands of people who have never beeen to any rally before and also the organization level isn't good.

    I like the educational value of the description of this video:

    "we made a big mistake standing in this position. It was the first and last time we stood in very dangerous places."
