    To avoid interpretation and confusion, the rule should be written like this: 20.1.5 On a road section that is a public road and at the start of a stage, a competition car may only be
    driven on four freely rotating wheels and inflated tyres. Any car not complying with this article will be considered as
    retired as per WRC Art. 46. An additional penalty may be imposed by the stewards.

    Neuville breaths away from third place: "Knowing my boss, he will undoubtedly ask for more!"


    "Everything went pretty well in SS10, we had a good pace in the car, and conditions were fairly stable throughout the special, explained Thierry Neuville at the microphone of WRC All Live. I felt a little more comfortable in the car. I tried to be efficient, to find grip and to drive clean. In one part of the stage, I felt that I had a little more grip , so I decided to push a little harder. But at the end of the special, I was quite surprised to see the times, especially after the result of SS9, where we had lost time. beat with the car, OK, but the loss of time was very important. It went much better in the next stage! From the start, our goal is to accumulate kilometers in the car with Martijn, to get used to to each other. We still have work to do, so we have to continue on this path. And Monte-Carlo is probably the best "school" that Ma could dream of. rtijn for a start! It will therefore be necessary to keep the car on the road, especially after the problems encountered by Ott. But knowing the temper of my boss, he will probably ask for more! "

    There's no confusion. 1 cm strap of rubber is not a tyre.

    The tyre doesn't need to be inflated. It can be flat but it has to be a tyre. The black round one piece of thing.

    It's not confusing for teams. It's quite clear. You need to have a tire. If you write "inflated" then 1bar is still inflated or not anymore? Then you have bigger room for interpretation...

    That can never be avoided and that's why stewards exist, it is their job to interpret the letter and spirit of the rules in any given situation. Admittedly, rules could always be written in more specific and clear way and that is what's constantly happening.

    some times old school is the way to go!

    The overnight storm might have damaged our service area but not the Team!

    Toksport WRT is still leading the Rallye Monte-Carlo with Mikkelsen comfortably in Front plus a great P4 for Bulacia on his first Rallye Monte-Carlo!
