I see such a stage as ideal for dads and their little kids to spread the rally virus

Hey, that was my point too. I think they are positive for this kind of reason and if I were an organizer I will for sure add them to the rally route. Don't misunderstand this point. But let me say I just don't like them personally and I don't wish there will be too much of them on a single rally. I think this is a fair point.

How come results are down? Shouldn´t happen in such an event. Very bad!

Overshot? Turned right when he shouldn´t.

Edit: Looked like he came from left, but obviously overshot.

Strange. He is still just 2 seconds behind the winner of the stage. Nice save

Dirty roads running down the order

Have to say I thought last nights street stage was particularly ugly, especially to watch on screen, but I bet the fans who were there enjoyed the spectacle.
