    I've seen many rallies and they are hardly ever fair. I have seen the occasional backmarker making a great tire gamble and getting way up front.
    But i have never seen results like these, where there is no connection between the skill of the driver and the times they put on the board.

    Once bertelli goes faster than Evans and neuville, it's just not a competition anymore. A spectacle, sure. Lots of drama, great to see for some, like american wrestling. But when it's not about the skill of the competitior it's not a serious sport.
    No point in doing rally then, because no matter what you do, you will never have equal conditions, and there will be advantages/disadvantages based on road position.

    Or rather, no point in watching I guess

    Though. I do hope there will be challenges tomorrow as well, not as much, but still some. So we might keep Solberg in top 5, and other rally2 cars well in the points as well. So the split Saturday and Sunday points get to have a proper impact on the championship, but not the way that was intended.

    The camera position in Ott's car should be the standard one for all cars, it's really great

    The irony: Kalle was exited to have better road position for not driving in Monte, and now 2nd car on the road..
