[WRC] Central European Rally 2023 (26-29 Oct)

[Mirek]

Ok, but since we lost Craig Breen, has any driver said something along the lines of, “this is so much fun, I love this rally”

Mathieu Franceschi in ERC. He's like super positive no matter what happens.

EDIT: I think that Kalle rarely moans about anything.

[Humber]

Hope the crew that had the accident are OK. Had a few stages this week on the NZ tarmac Targa that have been cancelled for safety reasons because of rain. (nuts fast too, one stage 157km/h ave, even with a 200km/h top speed restriction, another today 45.6km run in close to 20 minutes flat). Perhaps get the WRC crews down for the NZ Targa next year?

The last few km of this stage are awesome for me.

Ahhh Lappi stopped

[jonkka]

Lappi off, as some expected.

[Doon]

I was talking about the WRC1 drivers. Plenty of happy people lower down the field.

Rovenpera doesn’t moan because he’s dominant

Neuville stuck with hard springs chosen at SD. Maybe Tanak is similar.

Rovenpera doesn’t moan because he’s dominant

Not true. In Chile for example he drove half of the stage in a thick dust loosing tons of time but in the finish he was just joking about that.

[Mirek]

Lappi off, as some expected.

It was barely visible but the LR wheel looked in wrong position.

[meh]

About Tänak moaning. Some, mostly see it is moaning and some just to be honest. This can be just cultural thing, Estonians are just #nofilter people often and say things straight forward out like those are. For some it's good, for some it's bad.
