[WRC] Rally Sweden 2024

[mknight]

Fun day.

Didn't get what I wanted in WRC1, Evans passing Fourmaux, because Fourmaux did well and Evans hit a snowbank on a cut and got snow in his intake. But he ~halved the gap to 16.7s and tomorrow is 60km, so it's still on.

There is nothing "on". Fourmaux gets more points from today unless he crashes
The gap has nothing to say at all for Sunday.

At this point and based only on expected entertainment value, who wants the old points system back?

But it's old vs new is it? It's old or many other better versions vs this stupid one which has a minor improvement compared to the initial one.

Wow. He beat Tanak, never mind WRC2. And it wasn't on rally.tv.

I wonder whether his onboard will be available later.

Onboards are up. It was a good run, looks committed, good rhythm. That's what Pajari looks like when everything clicks, then.

Well blimey. You are right, I was still thinking the old way.

Although I would find it satisfying for him to pass Fourmaux.

I do.
This new system have ruined the full rally. And what's the point in the Fourmaux v Evans battle now?

[Myrvold]

He said he saw Munster’s off and he thought it was a corner earlier so by the time he came to the right corner he came too fast. He himself said it was too late.

I was a bit surprised that at no-time was there any warning triangle, or specators trying to warn the drivers? I know that the rear lights could be seen, but yet, it felt unecessary.

Why, what's different for Fourmaux and Evans now?

What are they fighting for? Who will take the 2nd place trophy instead of 3rd, and which side of Lappi they will stand? But I mean, in terms of championship it's pointless. Sunday is what matters there, but that's not a fight between them. The total rally standings are, maybe with the exception of being a "WRC Rally Winner" quite pointless now. Literally.

Good morning guys
