This wasnt working too. We have direct line with results from organisers. If it isnt working, it is the same here and also on official IRC results.

Water in the engine at a river crossing, they decided to stop to not damage the engine further as they were out of the points anyway.

It has been a great rally for Skoda, showing his power over their contenders....specially the engine built by Oreca. I´m wrong?

I agree. I think the engine and suspension are the best bits of the Fabia, and it has shown here well. It's not over yet though!

Have you tried uninstalling flash and doing a fresh install of the latest version. Might work.

Somo problems with people walking through the stages. Organizers say that they might cancel the stages. Not sure but I think this is happening on SS14.

Sometimes the organizers send those rumours through the radio to make spctators (listening to the radio) to shout other spectators (wrongly placed) t get better locationsso as not to make the stage cacelled. hopefully that is the case.

Nice time by JK, slow again by Villagra - let's see if Pozzo can stay ahead.

Federico Villagra (2): There are no improvements on the car.

me thinks that car is ok, at least hirvonen showed this in monte...improvements should be made behind steering wheel

One policeman at the radio told the spectators were walking on the middle of the road making hard they work. But is normal this kind of situation and the spectators are many today suprising the organizers.

Colin said on the radio that his car sounds very rough.

But as you know, S2000s sound rough on idle anyway. Is it really that likely that the car has had an engine problem for the whole rally but one that neither can be fixed, nor is terminal?

Villagra's gap in s/km to the leaders is actually bigger this year than in the WRC event last year.
