56. Renties Ypres Rally Belgium 2021

[focus206]

Good job by Neuville and Breen, I underestimated their advantage for Ypres, and finally a positive weekend for Hyundai.
Impressed by Rovanpera, beating his teammates on asphalt. This wasn't Toyota's rally and definitely not Ogier's rally, but as you can see, still 3rd - 4th - 5th... when Hyundai and its drivers have a bad rally, it's DNF. So nothing to worry about for Toyota and Ogier, the championship is theirs to lose.

It can be difficult and challenging and at the same time boring to watch...

Onboards were ok, but outside cameras were massively boring to me. Specially watching some dusty corners where WRCs went at 50 kph.. The spectacle was missing.

In ypres you need to go and watch 170km/h corners. There you can see the difference between drivers.

Ogier has been weighed 3 times already 1 kg under limit..

After event scruteering, so is he likely to get a penalty for that?

Should be disqualification i suppose.

But it turns out the alpine of bux was also under weight, and he got 30 minutes penalty.

Would be big blow if he gets penalty. But rules are rules... I'm sure the yellow page is on the way. If the allegations are true

Congrats to Neuville. did the job.

Breen also surprisingly good job.
Kalle and Oliver men of the rally. Kalle is more and more candidate for 2022 WDC.

On the first stage they had picked a section of the circuit with tight bends and it looked good, but on power stage it was just long straights (looking like driving alone on a motorway) and hairpins.

Spa is a fast, open circuit even for F1, so it was always going to be tricky to not make a WRC car just look plain slow. I thought Tanaks comment about needing an extra 500bhp was quite funny!

Horrible news

No entry for Ingram is a bit of a surprise, especially with him being with SXM Competition who are a Belgian team.

Chris Ingram @ChrisIngramGB

Why oh why did I not do Ypres ?! Nevermind. Onwards and upwards with the plan...
