We have been through similar shit here (although never was it the organization itself who blamed the driver). Especially after the tragic accident in Rallyshow Uherský Brod some years a go where the driver was a rich a laywer driving for fun or with Kopáček who was well known for having many crashes before. The media were tearing them apart. Politians, celebrities, many of them never attended any rally, joined the hunt as soon as they smelled the opportunity to raise their popularity. But it seems to be over. The police investigation and court standings so far brought quite reasonable decisions and now suddenly the very same media pretend that nothing happened and cover the sport like any other.
