[WRC] Safari Rally Kenya 2025

[Fast Eddie WRC]

So it's a SSS win for Evans... he's usually off the pace on them. Maybe it really is his year.

I wonder how the folks from Dirtfish will be now "hunting" stucked crews on stages without live maps. Have they some "advanced" Rally.tv mode (I don´t think so) or promoter done it by purpose? So many questions...

Ask this Antti guy, who has friends in wrc+.. never was anything wrong, thry were just learning and getting better

"NO WORDS
The controversy against the FIA ​​continues. The entire WRC circus shows to be very united and determined to clash with the FIA.
This is how the drivers conducted the interview at the end of SS1:

•The WRC2 drivers said they cannot comment
•Münster and Serderidis responded in French.
•Muted scene for: McErlean, Pajari
•Fourmaux responded: “Hakuna Matata”
•Katsuta responded in Japanese.
•Tänak responded in English saying: “we have already spoken about it, you know how it will be this weekend. You can go on holiday.”
•Rovanperä in English: “we will not comment this weekend. We thank the fans but we will not comment, we will speak later”.
•Evans responded in Welsh.
•Neuville responded in French explaining that he will not speak all weekend.

The new FIA code of ethics applies a 10,000 euro fine plus 20,000 suspended for every swear word a driver says during an interview.
The first case was Fourmaux in Sweden which sparked a revolt among drivers from all over the WRC circus.
The drivers founded the agency WoRDA (World Rally Drivers Alliance) to protect themselves and seek dialogue with the FIA, arguing that:
• The fine is too high because in rallies there are very few drivers who earn very high salaries(only 3 exceed a million).
• The adrenaline may not make them lucid during interviews done immediately after the special stages. Furthermore, freedom of expression is a concept that must always be kept in mind.
• All drivers know perfectly well that they are examples and would not like to swear but there must be a meeting point in case it happens or at least they should not feel afraid to say what they think.

The FIA ​​responded, through its president, late and approximate, which further irritated the representatives of WoRDA.
After Kenya there will be a dialogue between the parties but in the meantime the crews will not respond or will do so in their native language (while on TV they would be forced to do so in English).

It is a little disappointing for us fans because Kenya is an extremely particular race and hearing the drivers is essential but it is also right that they take their position against the FIA."

Hard to believe. Both Neuville, ogier, tanak and rovanpera should be well over a million. And I presume evans also.

Seems that timing somewhat works now on the web page.

Neuville probably already something broken, seems like suspension issue to me

[CeskyOndra]

And Fourmaux unable to start the car before the stage...

[EstWRC]

Hyundais already falling apart.

Lol
