    I dare to say that the crowd control seems to be generally good. I didnd't see any suicidal spectators along the stages like often elsewhere (maybe few individuals but no dangerous crowds). Sure it's strange to call it "no spectator" rally and than even issue beer tents to the stages but in the end I just feel a little jelous that you can go there and spectate the WRC in your country

    I think that the sport gained new fans from Croatia and this is a great thing for the sport we all love.
    And I agree, fans are generally behaving well.

    A bit off topic here ,Hopefully Barum Rally will return this year (to the ERC) and while on the subject, I'd love to see it on the WRC calendar.
    Only you know your true potential.
    This year we rally #ForCraig

    Well, I'm far away from Zagreb now and that's why I'm super sensitive of possibility of bad organization and loss of slot in the 2022 calendar when I'll be able to come

    An epic battle awaits us on the PS. Lot of points to be decided, maybe Tanak will go flat out to damage Toyota's result, maybe Toyota will have some strategy of securing the 1-2.

    On a fun note... the incident of Ogier and the policeman is a principle example of why the WRC shall not be held in USA

    And there was probably a bus lane( because there was a bus stop) and you shouldn't be driving in the bus lane.

    In the States - he would have been pushed off the road with shot tyres, pulled out of the car, tazed and sent to prison losing 25p would be the least problem

    There are no bus-lane signs on the road, moreover it was on Sunday. At least here in Prague majority of bus-lanes are free to use on Sunday.

    That's not bus lane even though the bus stop is there. BMW was driving correctly.
