Tideman's 2:10 penalty must be wrong?

"SS11 2:10 Late (13 min) at TC" Let's see, sounds weird

Tidemand has no penalty

Kopecký: "To do only one WRC rally per year makes no sense."

That says it all and I'm afraid there may be no next time.

Allive WRC2 preference over WRC3 goes so far that when they now had 3 WRC3 crews on stage, all in top 10, they instead go to Formaux that is last in WRC2 and 27 or so mins behind.

Now that Robertson won snooker semi-final, I had time to revisit this and do some revisions. Firstly, it now includes both cancelled stage as well as stages with nominal times. That changed little but for accuracy it's important. In addition, final column is added to give proportion of cancelled stage lengths per total rally lengths. 2020 indeed seems to have highest ratio with 8,3%, after 1996 that had 7,1%. On average, 2,3% of stage kilometers are cancelled annually. Bear in mind that pre-1979 years do lack plenty of stage data.

Thanks. Interesting to note some of the anomalies. 1992 took a relatively big hit on the Tour de Course, with stages cancelled due to the football stadium tragedy, a non rally event. In 1996 16%/291km of the Safari was lost in just three stages, which would have left a dent on the season overall, though the rally was still 1493km, nearly the length of the entire 2020 season!

I think it is not only "one WRC rally per year". His biggest problem that until now he did only three races this year...

Mikkelsen had 2 races until now and also just one WRC rally.

I meant that it says that he won't do any one-off starts in the WRC in the future and I doubt he is able to manage any meaningful program such as full WRC3.

They have made interviews with WRC3 drivers only because they were starting in front of Fourmaux...

Might It have something to do with them having no camera...?
