Lake, river, hinkelsteins, trees, rocks, spectators, weather, cows it's all part of the rally and the stages but if you can build some extra safety who couldn't agree with that. To bring some extra safety that doesn't kill the rallystage nor the whole rally itself, no it safes the rally-sport in general and in the end lifes of people. No rally-driver wants to be killed in a accident but even the best rally-drivers make mistakes for whatever reason and that's a fact. So if we can help to make the sport a bit safer including the spectators what's wrong with that.
Are you so stupid to ignore that or didn't you have your pill today ?
It´s the speed that kills. Pls remember that. Best thing WRC-rallying with 100hp cars and simple summer pattern tyres, but as long as that will not happen N.O.T. has the very point in this discussion.

Tommi Mäkinen, back in the years...
I can imagine the test debriefing meetings. Nothing much said & a lot of "Gallic shrugs" - and they wonder why they aren't getting anywhere!
I think they need a good test & development driver...
I've noticed multiple times now, the forum is very sluggish in the evening. Then after 23:00 UTC (00:00 CET), like clockwork, it becomes instantly loading and instantly usable again. I don't know...
And at the end of the 2025 season he said that all of his vacations are planned on the rally weekends so he wouldn't have time to watch or participate :D
After Monte they said, dont worry Sweden will be better.
They'd moved their test base to Finland 3 years ago to sort the car on fast gravel (and snow).
And in Sweden... they were worse.
