Till now I thought N.O.T. is the worst member of this forum. Lazy, mean, grumpy but underneath that Rocket Raccoon from Guardians of Galaxy skin is kind person with great heart and huge rally enhusiast. But AnttiK7 is something totally different. You know, sometimes you do something wrong like starting this thread with topic nobody is worried about except AnttiK7, but reporting Tanak to FIA is a brand new level of being a douche.bag. BAN is not enough for somebody like AnttiK7.

Guys, easy now. Let him be and just wait and see how all of this plays out. If they do start messing with the results, then I imagine FIA will get a nice quantity of more complaints regarding Monte Carlo Rally.
Antti, you really don't seem to understand why quite a few dislike you.
Not planning to post anymore in this thread, so no point in responding to me.Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

I can't believe we got 37 pages now of this crap!
Reporting Tanak to FIA!? That is just beyond possible!
That AnttiK7 character must surely feel very proud of himself...Drive as if your life depends on it...because it does!

While you’re satisfied about FIA taking notice of your alleged complaint, I’m worried with a possible negative precedent being open in our sport.
No matter how good your intentions may be and how valuable some of your points can look, if the FIA reacts supporting a complaint made by a fan, what will happen when anti-rally people or movements start lobbying against rally? Will the FIA also attend their protests and let the sport die?
We live in a free world and everyone is entitled to his/her opinion, but letting institutions being driven by those eager to reveal a moral superiority on the social media doesn’t seem to be a sensible way to run them.Rally addict since 1982

Chill out guys, they're just gonna have a word with him or at worst he'll get fined. They're not gonna disqualify him. Remember when Neuville had no mirrors on his cars? That's pretty damn dangerous and they did nothing about it after all. It would create too much of a stir. In the best case they will present a plan how they will penalise drivers for that sort of stuff in the future.

Not really an argument since they are nothing special in road mode, I've driven an Impreza S10 WRC and it's pretty easy to drive and i drive a 340hp Impreza every day in the snow, and for sure it's hard to stay away from sliding but i try to keep it to the ice lakes and not in traffic

That is where you are wrong. Being a spectator there I would like to see Tanak doing that stuff. Not dangerous and something to remember. Those small things would kill our beloved rally very slowly and at the end we will be happy to spectate rally at the circuit. I am not exaggerating. I know what I am talking about. Such suggestions were here in CZ in 2012 after rallycar killed spectators.

Again, if someone gets hurt by a rally car in a stage that is very bad press for our sport already, but you can argue that it is part of the risk you take when you go spectating and that it almost never happens when you stay in the marked zones.
However, if someone gets badly injured because a driver puts on a show (or for that matter looks at his phone or is speeding... any type of negligent behaviour by whomever it might be committed) on a public road that is instant death for rally at least in that region. Imagine the news reports and the outrage by the people living in that area. It's just not worth the risk in my opinion. The show takes place in the competitive stages. If that is not enough for certain spectators, I consider them greedy. Don't give the naysayers good reasons to have us banned.
And if people are gonna say I'm repeating myself - well dumb luck. I am making this point as an answer to the same old argument from the other side.
Professional motorsport takes place away from public roads and until someone makes a valuable (or any at all) argument that this is for some reason untrue, I rest my case.

Yesterday Chris Ingram posted he was doing a 'shakedown' of the Polo R5 so it seems he's continuing in that car for the Jim Clark. I don't know if its because the 2nd Yaris hasn't arrived yet at...
