    On top of that he said he had intercom issues and broken front suspension on SS5.

    I mean it surely is possible he had all those issues. But one has to wonder why he has a ton of issues on basically every WRC rally he does.

    Here in Estonia the puncture on SS6 was from mowing down a concrete anti-cut (3:52 onboard), the second one on SS15 I am not sure, there are some hard hits between 4 and 4:20, but maybe I missed something.
    Mads was always on excuses when he dont win.

    Are you ok with this?
    Terrifying.

    This is driving that will make rallying banned in several countries if it continues.

    FIA actually disqualify Veiby rest of season to make a point, but this is ok......

    Wonder what would happen if this was a unknown lokal guy? I can tell you that the reaction would been totaly different.

    Østberg had to make a "i'm sorry" video when he said "f..k pirelli", this is on a quite different level!

    seems like you all never witnessed a liaison between stage, especially the bits near the starts. I've seen worst things than the shown video even at Monza show!!! : )

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQwzC444ZNk

    to be clear: not justifying such a big breach, but everyone is basically speeding on liaison, burning red light, invading opposite track overtaking where forbidden, using the emergency lane, slaloming, drifting, being escorted by police to overtake traffic jams (just to mention things I witnessed personally). most of the time, liaisons timiming are impossible to target without speeding in the traffic...

    Everyone knows the likes of McRae, but for the rallying hardcore following the sport today, we'll never forget Lukyanuk!

    Yes, even if it's terrifying to you I'm OK with it.
    To greeks this is absolutely nothing if my statement was terrifying I cant even imagine what this is to you

    I'm not living in a fantasy world where wrc stars are not speeding - it happens for whatever reasons. Thierry had his reasons and while it wasn't nice and to you "terrifying" it was dealt accordingly by FIA. It's over now, no need to cry about this or Mads case (I found the decision in his case also justified) or Veiby (justified) anymore.

    One solution is to make liasions more realistic. It would help a lot.

    I still remember one finnish hypocrite member here who wrote to the FIA once...

    I've been around rallying for 25-30 years, i've grown up in the middle of the stages at Rally Finnskog and i've know pretty well how this has been thru the years.

    But times has changed, this is not ok anymore. If we wan't rallying to continue in the future, such stupidity has to end.

    I have also done speeding at liasons, but 20-30 km/h is one thing, this is on another level, this is utterly madness and some real bad judgment.

    Its quite easy to end it to, more time on liasons and harder punishments.
