Again stage stopped?

Stage stopped due a fire.

But it seems he somehow continues the rally? I can see his stage time on SS4 (16th overall)...

SS4 Happy to be back on track.🫡
Slowly finding out our pace and tarmac feeling, learning how to improve ourselves and hopefully the whole second loop after midday service.

Filip Mares wins his first stage today (SS10). It's not easy in Italy. Well done!

[WRCStan]

I've only just connected MRF Vivek, who is usually good fun when I see him on alllive, to the Samir wrecking the car video. My mind is blown.

Good fight between Bonato and Llarena for 3rd and Bonato takes his revenge from Canarias where Llarena took him 2nd position in PS for less than 0.1s.
0.2s this time.
Still good points for Llarena (and sympathetic comment on Bonato) even if he does not clinch officially the title (but it is as good as done)

Great home win by De Tommaso, good job by Campedelli and a bit a pity for Crugnola who sounded strong
Some good times by Mares also but spoiled by early issue in Mickey Mouse stage.
Quite good points for Tempestini in the championship to target 2nd position with also a very good Sunday by Pardo.


Can also notice a good job by Csomos with Hankook tyres even if not classified officially

And easy win by Pellier in ERC 4-ERC 4 Junior
As expected from Canarias and with Fotia out, Mabellini has been his main competitor but no real match as Pellier did a perfect streak from Saturday afternoon (only losing the Mickey Mouse stage and the 5km SS2 on Saturday morning).

Palomo only 4th behind a surprising Dapra.
Sounds like the Spaniard understood that Junior title is out of reach on pure speed with Barum coming and can count only on Pellier’s issues. So probably he will secure ERC 4 title with conservative drives.

As we could expect, difficult first tarmac even for Herranen.

In ERC-4 (all worst is 0 or not competed):
1. Palomo 119
2. Mabellini 102
3. Pellier 90

In ERC-4 Junior:
1. Pellier 97 (worst 7)
2. Palomo 91 (worst 19)
3. Mabellini & Herranen 61 (worst 0)

Pellier would clinch Junior title if he wins in Barum (whatever the other results), even with a last round to be held later.
