WRC Croatia 2026

[meh]

I'm glad that Taka got his win before this weekend; the win he got from Kenya was more earned, and this one was more gifted. Both give the same amount of points, but feel different.

A bit of fresh air was pace from Jon Armstrong. Although it did not materialize as a good end result due to a driving mistake, it gave hope to M-Sport that they can compete at least with Hyundai.

At the end, a bit of mixed feelings. Watching the O/A results and there are no "ACE" drivers (based on results from previous years) - Ogier, Tänak, Rovanperä, Evans, Solberg, Neuville. The top 3 from this rally had 2 rally wins combined before this rally. Some may say it is a new era, but if places from 4th to 14th are occupied by RC2 cars, this era sucks a bit.

I guess RallyTV has taken more of the average Joe fans. Understable that people chose to watch rather than sitting in front of a forum. Except for me and some guys, of course... ; )

Wouldn't call myself an average Joe fan, I just enjoyed watching the live non-commentary option but as you could tell, I still responded in this forum every now and again during the weekend.

Before the live streaming I came here to read what happened, to get the latest news, to maybe get a link to a clip.
Nowadays you can just see it all live, there just isn't that much to talk about anymore.

Yeah, understand. That´s what I meant. But hey! The talks in here often gives you more salt and pepper, if you understand what I mean. Discord also good, but can freak out quite often.

For me the forum is a welcome addition while watching live and a sort of liveticker while not watching. Sadly the second part is less and less relevant...

This forum is great, because I don't have a lot people around which are a true hardcore fan as I am. I mean I talk to people on work about this but they just know nd barely watch WRC, but don't know any insight as here people do. It just I don't always have time to watch it live, so I don't even come to forum to not spoil it for myself. Otherwise if I'm fully into it I have multiple screens and I'm engaged in it. If we ever meet somewhere we will surely drink a beer

Look at this guy where he filmed the rally.

Some people really seems to go to rally just to commit suicide it seems

By the way this was Paddon’s first ever tarmac podium on his first full tarmac event since Rallye Deutschland 2017!!! Most impressive. Hope to see him now on the gravel as well.

If you check the onboard in SS4/8 at 5:10 you can see that spot, it's silly but not really dangerous, extremely little chance of the car going there
