All of you remember Seb driving with Daniel hanging from the window. It is a memory of the sport, and it is a part of the essence of this sport. Same applies for Bjorn engaging 5th alongside a huge cliff, with on tyre less. This is also part of the essence of rallying. If something does not pose ACTUAL danger to the public, please, let it be. Ott with his WRC driving at 60 kph is safer than most of us even if he had only two wheels.
We maybe have to reconsider Neuville's pace on high speed events. Now when he had a more competitive car, then the speed was speed there, previously the Hyundai was just so bad and it didn't give him...
