what bad PR would it do..
Bad PR would be if WRC and FIA ouldn't once again make rallies happen.
Football, basketball, tennis, Dakar, Arctic rally etc happening all over the world..

I'm not totally up to speed, so what's the current status regarding hospital beds and emergency services being over stretched in that part of the world?
I understand there's a curfew in that part of France at the moment.
What I can't understand is why the argument for an event like this putting an unnecessary strain on the emergency services hasn't stopped the event already?
Even just looking at the pic from Ogier's test crash this morning makes the whole thing look totally unnecessary, whether we're all missing the action or not.
I'd be gutted if it didn't run.
Run smooth - ok, fine - we got away with it.
Any big accidents or injuries and the sport will look back and ask itself why we had to go there.

I haven't seen anyone having bad thoughts because basketball and football teams continue doing their job in national and european level. I don't see any reason why another sport should be different.

On the contrary, most of the people are very happy because they have something that attracts their interest and presents some aliveness in these gloomy times. I don't see any reason why another sport should be different.

Turned out to be an interesting race. Glad I decided to watch it. Too bad Logan went out. At least it was from racing hard and not his own mistake.
