thoughts on the cars in the new season of WRC?
i think it's shaping up to be a decent a season
Where do you watch this stuff, and where would one go to watch Group A era WRC shit?
>tfw no more homologation specials
>>16512534
>No Mitsubishi
>No Subaru
>1.6L turbo engines
They haven't even started yet and it's already shit
>>16512927
>still thinks mitsubishi or subaru are relevant in WRC
Oh boy are you behind on the times
>>16512927
But they boosted the power now with the new regulations. So these are supposed to be some of the fastest WRC cars ever. According to autosport.com it's supposed to be like the return of a safer Group B.
>>16512927
how does one stuff so much shitposting into one post
rally is relevant again for the first time in decades
>>16514430
>safer group b
the whole point of group b was that it was a deathrace
At least there'll be a shakeup in the competitive running order. Now let's see how good Ogier can do without the Polos.
>>16512534
I saw a car today with that weird camo paint
>>16514430
>safer group B
ok, when are we getting those homologated cars?
>groub b was slower than 90s group a let alone modern WRC
>2017 cars are lighter and have more power
I dont understand you fanboys who werent even alive during group b
should be fun to watch

2016 ripped official WRC hour long review shows.
>>16512534
I'll root for Toyota.
>>16515327
>tfw modern rally cars kinda look dumb
i know that they're impressive beasts but i mean
look at that thing
it looks like a car in rocket league
>>16514537
It wasn't really. You should read the grievance letter before what's his face died. No one among the drivers / support staff wanted to seriously compromise group B let alone shut it down entirely.
>>16515327
Group B was awesome because it treaded the line of safety, while still being homologated.
>>16515401
Well it's based on a fiesta, a shitty little econobox hatchback eggshit that looks like a retarded little fish
>>16515367
FINALLY thank you so much, is there a way to find 2017 wrc when it comes out?
>>16515368
Same. I love the new Yaris
>>16515450
hopefully there'll be torrents.
it was on kickasstor until they got shutdown.
>>16512534
monte carlo starting in like 5 mins. I'm so fucking pumped holy shit.
>>16515450
you gotta pay to watch it on their shitty website which has super low bitrate streaming.
>>16515401
>he wouldn't dd an octane
not even half an hour in and somebody blocked the road
>>16517983
stage cancelled
>>16517983
What the fuck was that about, the spectators could have just flipped the car and it would have been good
>>16517995
nah he shattered the windshield, even if he wanted it rolled they took too long and yellow flagged everyone. disappointing.
>>16518011
Also it seems that a spectator got hurt, you could see him falling when paddon crashed
>>16518028
just saw that
https://youtu.be/VQJ1bVgDaJk
>>16518036
Its propably nothing too serious as the car didnt really hit him, but it doesnt look like an adult
really hard to tell what happened here
>>16518096
new theory: spectator wasn't standing on the cliff at all. he got tail whipped and thrown all the way up and back down. RIP in peace
>>16518096
Was that dude sitting in a tree?
He musta got spooped hard and broke a branch or just fell, but that guy was definitely not on the ground before the car wrecked.
>>16512534
I'm a Citroen fanboy ever since the Xsara, so I'm rooting for them.
>>16512927
>mitsubishi
>subaru
>anything of relevance when compared to european cars
lmao
>>16518149
i think he's moving to fast sideways to have just fallen. guess we'll find out tomorrow, I doubt they'll do the next stage tonight if someone really did get hit
>>16518125
Well, if thats the case he was a dumbass and deserved it.
>>16518096
>>16518125
>>16518171
>The spectator is fine, it fell accidentally from the overlying rock (certainly due to the fear or the breaking of rock below)

>>16518218
Spectator has been heli'd away apparently which is hopefully good news.
>>16518218
so does that mean we get a second stage today?
>>16518460
SS2 is running (delayed 10 min), but it's not televised. I think you can listen to it on the radio.
>>16518096
he crashed his car into a wall
>>16518218
That's not a legit instagram idk why people think it is. Dudes dead, Sergio Couto of Hyundai Motorsport said so
>Only two cars managed to finish yet it's already shaping to be the best season in years
I'm ready
Dumas wrecked his porsche in ss2, rip in pieces
>>16518043
He dead. Photographer where he shouldn't have been.
>>16519203
Everytime I look at the Yaris WRC I fucking cum. I really NEED that new Yaris Gazoo right the fuck now. Can't wait for Geneva.
>>16512927
Since ford made a better sti than subaru yeah dick suck

>>16519606
