    The Champ is feeling the pressure. Silly little mistakes creeping into his performances lately.

    These are an important part of a rally, and have a lot of local impact. Some of them doesn't work on TV, like this, but work very well to the spectators, sponsors and to the city.

    Can't understand the complaints... this SS by day would be far better then the german SS. People like to see cars spining around, and here they do it at least two times!
    I think it is possible to make more interesting and more beautiful stages in the city centers...

    True, but it's close to impossible to actually make a night city stage look good on the TV. (even the Zlin city stage is pretty bad to watch on TV).

    The only workable solutions are to have the camera higher than the cars else it's looking into the headlights or to have enough streetlight that they can drive without lights (never really seen that, Mexico tried last year and it didn't work).

    You have to have cars spinning around and sliding a lot. That's what that kind of spectators wants to see, and thst for that kind of manouvers that these SS are.

    Forget high speed corners or corners like true stages.
    Three gears are enough!

    I am not sure if the spectators are so interested to see donuts around barrels or strawbale. If you want a good example of night stage, also for cameras, I must say that I liked Guanajuato city stage in Mexico - nice parts with fast and slow corners and also "donuts" place for rally ignorants
