    Not good for the drivers who completed the stage, more tire wear than the rest.

    Stage 9 cancelled now, I’m sorry but Oliver should’ve gone back to a rally2 car, do a season or two with it and come back when he’s a bit older.
    Only you know your true potential.

    I'm no fan of Thierry, just sounds completely absurd to me.
    Handling wise it's true but there are other people in the traffic, and visibility from these cars in traffic is bad. You're sitting low and can't see much to the sides, and the mirrors are small (if you still have them on after hitting haybales on stages).

    I think it's a good move from FIA to give this time penalty for speeding, hopefully drivers learn that it's not a good idea to prevent lateness.

    Did we have any footage from the start of the stage anyyway? It's a long stage and they can cover only a section of it.

    Reportedly fire trucks were seen on the stage
