    Are you the only person who likes this rally?
    With this logic everyone hates hot and dry gravel rallies, basically a third of the season.

    I’m pretty sure it’s 4 minutes tomorrow.

    Everyone complained except Ogier. Loeb didn’t complain but also mentioned there was a lot of dust but he trusted his pacenotes.

    The wrc2 guys also complained.

    E: even Ogier said in media zone that it isn’t fair for others. That it was 4 minutes last year and even then it was bad and now the decision to have 3 minutes gaps. Says it’s worse this year with the dust.

    even 4min is not enough in those over 30km stages ...

    and when someone has puncture ...

    In "good old days" there were never 3 or 4 minutes intervals.

    But I´m OK with even 5 minutes because only 24 cars started.

    Well yes it’s a difficult topic, hard to find a solution. But for sure 4 minutes is better than 3

    Loeb saying in media zone they had already so much dust at the start so they called the team but they couldn’t do anything.

    The first time I watched WRC on gravel was Sardinia 2009, there were 4 minute intervals between WRC cars, 3 minute intervals for the others. And on the first stage of Sunday it still wasn't enough...

    seems to be Ogiers stage, has won it 3 times out of 4 the previous years and when he wins it then by a large margin.
