As you said, the rally phylosopy is to pass all sections as fast as possible.
This particular place was all about slowing down. The only way to avoid crashing, was to slow down.

Better get rid of corners then if slowing down is a problem...

What rallies would be left after your sanitisation of rallying. No Monte Carlo, can't be slowing for Ice. No Finland, can't be backing off to get over a jump. Pretty much no tarmac rallying in Ireland. No Rally Gb, might have to slow down for inconsistent grip on increasingly oversaturated mud? Your's is a bad road to go down, if you'll pardon the pun...

The tyres were shit compared to today, the suspension was bad, brakes weak .

The speeds thus slower, and overall safety almost the same (exept of course the safety equipment). That is why they should limit suspension travel, aero and tyres on current cars

How many of the actual top drivers from each catagory crashed at these 'tricky sections' in Rzeszow. Only one by my reckoning...

Don´t mix things up. A rally without corners isn´t a rally. Not even a racing track. But. You obviously haven´t crashed a 50000 and up Euros car in a rally on places known as more than an off corner, have you? Easy to talk whithout experience from real world.

My bad... in fact there were NONE !

Gryazin did crash on SS6, but didnt crash on the 'tricky' section, but just on a normal corner, running wide and hitting a bank...

Gryazin is a top driver? First time I read this.

For ERC gategory he sure is, sure he tends to crash alot but that's normal for a russian driver.
From the regular ERC drivers, who would you rate higher than him expect Kajetanovicz and Lukyanuk?
And again, his crash in Poland has nothing to do with those "dangerous" roads, just him missing the corner. <-- This might drop him from the 3rd best/fastest ERC driver =)

Sure, I know he is fast, but "top driver"? What he'd done to achieve that title? I also know erc is not full of fast drivers, so
I guess it's a matter of numbers only?

Yeah that's the problem here, you are top driver in ERC when you can afford to do it with R5. nonetheless he sure has some potential.
He hasn't achieved anything but he has been fast in almost every rally this year until mistakes/problems which led to him drop in standings.
This year he has won 1 rally in Latvia where he did beat Rovanpera fair and square even thought being little wild and almost crashing in couple places (that were caught on a cam) but still, speed is there. He just needs to stay on road.

it's up to the driver to know the "off corners", that's why we have recce.
and especially today, with the internet full of video's of "difficult rally corners", there's no excuse to not knowing where to be careful.

every corner, every bump, every cut, the difficulty is always the same. you have to determine how fast you can go through them without losing control or breaking the car. the big difference is how much room for error there is.

and i always say: if you can't afford to crash it, you shouldn't race it.
