There were people present who had to check the arch's safety and communication was to clear it. Which they were doing but apparently didnt make it in time before Tanak's car.
Crazy that while safety is most important, big penalties for driving without seatbelt or speeding, stages cancelled for spectator safety etc. But this...
Was Tanak's problem in last stage connected to this incident? Basically lost overall podium to Sesks.

Yeah, that point is intresting, drivers get penalties for baclavas, seatbelts and doughnuts and now we have freaking arch on road after blind corner. FIA approved.

As usual with this type of bizarre situations, it is a series of situations, mostly just unlucky, that leads to the ‘major’ part of it. If HQ had had visibility of it, then I’m sure there is a red flag straight away, we see how quickly they do it if there’s people standing in dodgy positions.
I’ve not seen one of these banners close up recently, but surely there was someone there that could have set off down the road to stop the next car - they would’ve had a few minutes and probably have more of an idea that they couldn’t move it in time? The difficulty would be trying to stop the car flat out and not get hit, which is maybe why this didn’t happen?If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!
Can we please get Oliver in a Yaris Rally1 for Finland please? Been a sensation to watch, really hope he takes this one.
