WRC Croatia Rally 2021

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Toyotas all taking 2 spare wheels this afternoon, others one.

Now it must be some road cleaning I guess or Taka takes it carefully.

Gus going well on the splits.

Stage delayed because of crowds on "no spectators" rally may hit back in the future.

There seems to be no control of the spectators. They announced that tickets for spectators are not for sale and some other instructions to keep social distances etc., but at the same time allowed everyone to go to the stages. It´s not very dangerous, when you are outside, but some rules should be observe at the WRC level! The other thing I noticed that the people are not using the masks at all...

"We made a mistake on the choice of tires for the morning, it's called a mistake. We have to take our responsibilities, I'm not trying to blame another person (note: Pirelli, in this case, who advised this choice followed by Hyundai). We had all the information, we simply made the wrong choice. We must try to push during the afternoon in order to get closer ", explained Andrea Adamo, the boss of the team Hyundai, at our microphone.

Four specials are on the menu for the second part of the day, the same four passages as those taken this morning.
