I wouldn't fancy 15mph on some of those road let alone 115 doesn't mean I would turn down a test drive though

I was amazed at the footage of Harri Rovanpera piling into the privateer Juuso Pykalisto who was stranded just round a corner.

The in car footage showed the impact

No one hurt though

Thumbs up

That little peugoet incident was so incredibly unlucky, nothing Harri could have done. Good if you are a SWRT fan

Also amazing was how quickly he could scrub off speed and then accelerate again.

Even my wife was dumbstruck at that footage. She just sat there, slowly uttering mild expletives.

Phoenomenal, utterly phoenomenal, and great to watch

had to feel for Rovanpera somewhat - that was a hell of an impact.

Another classic was the in-car footage when someone was overtaking a galloping elk

Very good coverage, great rally

Unhappy

If Rovanpera had slowed down at the when he passed the spectators warning him, as is customary, he probably would have been able to stop.
