For those of you who are not familiar with the stages from Madeira, I highly recommend the following 2 onboard videos, courtesy of Alexandre Camacho/Pedro Calado, Porsche 997 GT, Team Vespas and RTP Madeira.
SS3 (Campo de Golfe 2) and the amazing ss4 (Chão da Lagoa 2) with its trademark weather changes. Fantastic footage.

I am reading in Belgian newspaper that there was accident in a rallysprint in Guimaraes? Apparently there were three spectators killed and several injured when a car left the road after flying finish? Very sad news again for our beloved sport. May the victims rest nin peace.

Unfortunately it is true. Even worse it is because 2 of the victims were just children. Originally Posted by wwbroe

Apparently the victims were related to another competitor crew.
This is a recurring problem with sprints, not much importance is given to safety.
The car involved in the crash.
Condolences to the familys and everyone involved.
