The RAC's duration, no pacenotes, high night mileage and bad weather made it what it was.

It was never just about pure speed. It had a real magic and mystery too as the coverage was so delayed and tv coverage rare (although mainstream).

Its pretty ironic we saw so little of it compared to nowadays.

But maybe its WRC All Live that's actally what is making the modern short rallies acceptable to us. The footage is more way more now, so we ignore how little mileage there is because at least we see it all ?
