    I just saw a real short video of the crash, it looked to me that the spectator was sitting 6-10 feet above the road when the crash occurred and he just fell
    off the rocks onto the road. It didn't look at all like the car struck him.

    I hope that the car didn't hit him & he just fell off his perch. That would be easier for Paddon to handle I think.

    Meeke's found a buried bolder under the snow. What a hit. Yikes! Winter slick roads with no snow banks for protection.

    How 'bout these things on the back of the Toyotas?

    Start time for the first stage today was delayed because of concerns re spectator locations. Marshalls went to work and Stage 9 ran rather than needing to be cancelled. :Thumbsup:

    I find it pretty amazing that even after a death spectators still stand on the road & in run off zones. :eek:ut:

    Man that Fiat really took a hard hit on the drivers door. Hope the driver is OK. OUCH!

    Meeke can't catch a break. At least this time he wasn't at fault...maybe.

    WRC2 and GT classes. Those 124s look like fun.

    That Porsche looks like such a handful. So much power & no traction. At least those Abarth's don't appear to have too much power. They do look like fun, rear drive = :arf:

    Ogier won the rally. Not a surprise given all his competitors had issues.

    The big surprises (to me): 1) Neuville in his Hyundai was able to both take and maintain a lead, and 2) Latvala took 2nd in the Toyota's first outing!

    I was hoping Neuville could take the win. Great result for Latvala & Toyota. Congrats to Ogier I bet Malcolm Wilson & Ford are over the moon happy. Great way to start the year for M Sport.
