In addition to what has been said.

Rideheight vs other cars? Some definitely look a bit higher.

The car dips a bit at the front just before the hit, brakes? Ogier and Neuville dip a little bit as well at that spot, but the 4 later cars including Toyota do not.

[N.O.T]

chill.
this isn't F1.
rocks on a gravel rally is normal.
if it wasn't this corner.. it would be another without marshals, anyway it not their job.

change sport and never come back

How ridiculous is this timing? 5 hours between morning and midday loop. Do they need to hold a siesta in between or what?

Video of Tänak hitting stones. The filmer even zooms on the stones before Tänak. After he hits them, the marshalls go throw them out.

That's a hard impact, but it shouln't break the bottom protection, let alone the engine.

Dogs !!!! Dogs everywhere !!!!!!

Are they sick?

anyway it not their job.

Wrong. It's exactly their job to guarantee the safety of the spectators + racing cars.

[stefanvv]

"Almost never shoot a hare" A say in Sweden.

If I understand the meaning right, I've heard almost the same in Bulgaria. Just the animal is NOT's favorite patient.

[sollitt]

worthless marshals of shit...

are those worthless waste of oxygen subhuman idiots blind ????? can't they see the stones on the racing line ???? what the f*** do they think their job is ?? just to keep the brazilian crowds in control ??I

stupid idiots !!!!!! we lost one of the championship contenders because of their incompetence....

Are you suggesting that their job is to remove rocks from the stage?

[stefanvv]

That's a hard impact, but it shouln't break the bottom protection, let alone the engine.

The engine has broke because the oil had leaked from the cooler.

[Tarmop]

Gabbage-sized rocks in racing line shouldn`t be there, so yes. But what do you expect, when an organizer thinks it is ok to let the stage continue through a forestfire, with a place catching cars out or almost catching out.

[denkimi]

The engine has broke because the oil had leaked from the cooler.

Well, That only means they have placed their oil cooler in the wrong place, or their protection is not good enough.

Anyway, it shouln't happen. A big rock may damage the suspension, but nothing else.
