Wow wow wow. This is just amazing.

Sadly shows how bad a time he had with that Hyundai car but this reverses those doubts about Seb losing any pace & his outright pace.

Loving Isabelle’s pink watch but crickey what a load of fun it must be.

Allez Seb !

Imo he should just focus on the positives of his pace in these few stages before his off. Accidents happen, and he just got a bit overconfident finally having a competive car. Hopefully the next few rallies he can keep it on the road even if he dialls the pace back a bit.

As you say too many crashes can really effect a driver. And there won't be another McRae with his mindset to never let crash after crash effect his belief in his ability/speed.

I think he was aiming at the same here, after SS1 he said that "this is the most difficult stage so we took it carefully".

Remember also Fourmaux had a major crash in Ypres, a medium one in Monza and a small touch in Catalunya...crashes in all four latest tarmac rallies

It's sick what people film and share these days, let them get out the car and take a breath FFS. Until they are confirmed OK and visibly calm this isn't fair.
