I was watching Baranovo SS20 stage where that sh*t happened for Tanak, most likely ... that was a really big stone, ruts where developing during first Baranovo pass (ss18) and when first wrc cars started to go on ss20 ruts juts deepen even more with each car, and that really big stones' head was opening more and more. Every car was hitting this stone as it was sitting right in a middle of the rut for the right wheel. Fast corner, really fast, and it was like to hit 25cm high kerb at full speed. Michelin tyre H4 or S4 for WRC has much more steal wiring in their structure to make it stronger for punctures and stones like that b*stard over there, they weight 2kg more than TZ or those new tyres for R5 cars.
and when R5 class cars came - crazy, it was like massacre... Good that organisers stopped this before R2 and other cars came...

of course we tried to remove it many times if someone would dare to ask, but its was just a top of a big big stone, maybe few meters big under the gravel impossible to remove. Like I said, well done that stage was cancelled as 'it' could destroy all less strong cars which were to come after R5s

Sordo carried on after that but clipped a tree with a rear wheel on SS20 and broke something.
