Rally Croatia 2022

Do you boys think the best drivers in the world with the sharpest handling cars on gigantic brakes and mega sticky tires should be exempt from pathetic speeding fines because things just don't compare to normal people/cars? It doesn't make sense how a Thierry at 160 is more dangerous than your grandma at 40?

I'm no fan of Thierry, just sounds completely absurd to me.

Handling wise it's true but there are other people in the traffic, and visibility from these cars in traffic is bad. You're sitting low and can't see much to the sides, and the mirrors are small (if you still have them on after hitting haybales on stages).

I think it's a good move from FIA to give this time penalty for speeding, hopefully drivers learn that it's not a good idea to prevent lateness.

must have been pretty heavy crash as live hasn't shown any footage from his car

Did we have any footage from the start of the stage anyyway? It's a long stage and they can cover only a section of it.

Reportedly fire trucks were seen on the stage

rear of the car fully on fire.. total loss

Stage 9 cancelled now, I’m sorry but Oliver should’ve gone back to a rally2 car, do a season or two with it and come back when he’s a bit older.

You talk against better knowledge.

Big relief. Only material things. Driver error should be the case... though...
