I don't really see the point in having a big stone so close to the road. I heard that Grönholm crashed into the same stone in 2003 so I guess they want it to be there. I wonder if they replaced it after Mikkelsen's crash moved it.
i have a questiong that i've benn asking myself for long time. that little sound like a little whistle that comes from Xavi Pons'd Subaru is that the transmission or turbo?????????????????
Pretty sure it's the turbo waste gate. Had it all explained to me once why it makes that noise but I didn't really understand many of the words being used, all a bit technical.
A big stuff up in the notes on that one. See how sometimes safety items actually create crashes as shown here and in Japan. That set of corners has claimed a few top names as well. Gronholm and Passonen?

Mikkelsen only collected his new '06 Focus (the car in the video) the week before the rally. Tt was his first rally in that car.

Gronholm crashed out on the tarmac exactly opposite the gravel road section.
A big rock next to the road is because that stage runs through epynt which is a militery range so theres big rocks everywhere.

I believe thats the waste gate for the turbo

In this case it is not a turbo neither transmissions. This is the sound of differentials.

it's the air on the turbine blades spinning back on itself which causes the flutter :)
because they don't use BOVs, since the turbos have a life span of only a round at a time :)

thats the ALS - anti lag system. It keeps the turbo on load when you release the throttle.
