Guys, be prepared for a huge cleaning effect tomorrow. It's so loose, 50% sandy and 50% loose gravel

fellas at the stages: does the rally1 without the hybrid feels/looks/sound much different on the passings?
i imagine its 'slower' but i wonder if its 'noticeable'.
and whoa p5 on that first shakedown live was so cool - even withouth the hybrid and with 100kg on the car. interesting. wondering too about the 'stress' these engines could suffer since they are not propeeerly made to run all the time without the hybrid help.

having Sesks talking in end stages and on dirt fish is so exciting. we really need these stuff in wrc.
cant wait to see pajari too! hope more teams do that. need new blood, need one-offs just to have these drivers all impressed with the beast of machinery that the rally1s are. happy and impressed drivers makes us more interested on the sport, thats so cool

I am very surprised in a positive way by this year Poland WRC edition. 12 hour before a start stages are not closed, so no problems to do spectaore recce and choose a parking spot in field.
Okay, my only expierence was in 2014 when all access road were closed 3 km before. On our liasion we accidentally hit the our 2014 spot where Kubica rolled (it’s tarmac section now). Nice memories.
SS 2/5 road are top! So bring it on👍

They were fine before the hybrid era and are just fine now when the electric power is not deployed.

It doesnt look any slower, it is just insane even without hybrid

2/5 must be great for the driver but we didn't find any safe and good spot for fans
