It's on the BBC News Website.....hope he's ok. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/world_rally/7098066.stm
Thats what i hoped to achieve, but didnt know what to title the thread with out sounding gay; "rally standings, rally updates etc".
was just lookin over overall standings there in rallyireland.org no mention of eugene donnelly? has he retired/// strange , just found him 14th place
How is Kris Meeke doing? Think me and a few mates are heading up towards enniskillen direction early tomorrow morning for a few of the stages.
was just on the radio about gronholm,... looks like he is going to continue tomorro im heading to mullaghmore on sunday to catch at least the final stage.. some spectacular views i hear cannae wait
Marcus is out of hosp and is fine, should be back in 2moro. You can get times of the stages updated every 2 mins at http://www.worldrallynews.com/~bfg/WRC_2007_R15/raceclas.php Im heading up there now to join my family and Graham, up early in the morning as am marshallin stage 12/15 for dungannon motor club.

I've noticed that the maps available on rallyireland.org won't let you print so I have hi-jacked them and uploaded printable versions for anyone who, like me, is unprepared and hasn't had time to go out and buy the rally pack - if there's even one available? http://www.rushhourtechnology.co.uk/bryan/rallyireland/leg2.jpg http://www.rushhourtechnology.co.uk/bryan/rallyireland/leg3.jpg http://www.rushhourtechnology.co.uk/bryan/rallyireland/leg3_ss17_18.jpg http://www.rushhourtechnology.co.uk/bryan/rallyireland/leg3_ss19_20.jpg All files are 1.1MB each.
If you'd done that earlier, you'd have saved me a trip to Fivemiletown for the program!!! Have the Ibiza all packed up with the CB ready for it's 5am start in the morning, can't wait!
Pics from Sloughan Glen Seen Nesbitt and Breen hitting the same bridge - Breen demolished one side of it. Also was there when Shaw put her on her side but got going again in his Evo9 Enjoy the phone pics
worst rally ever i was that disapointed i came home last night after stage 7 i wasnt likeing the way that the wrc cars were let off every 5 mins (well thats what it seamed) then the reguler irish men were every 30 seconds i only got to see 8 cars through stage 4 as gronholm had crashed then the marshalls wouldnt let us leave the stage till every other car does a drive through at walking speed eventually all the spectaters just up and went while the cars were still coming some of them marshals were strict (asking people to stand away out of the way from the road were you cant se anything) were as the others were layed back (they new the score with the fans and let them stand in better spaces still safe but were you can see the action) very disapointed
I knew it wasnt going to be up too much. Same as any normal ITC event. The only time you will get a wow factor with the WRC is if you go to Sweden or Finland. Maybe Catalunya as Graham would no doubt tell us interms of tarmac rallying. Our rally ireland is too narrow, slippy etc to see real ball out commitment. great stages in the dry - absolutly terrible in the wet. I drove Sloughan Glen last night and the amout of dirt was unreal. The place Nesbitt and Breen went off was pure muck. It was never going to be that exciting and when Kris Meeke went out along with Marcus it was rally over as far as i was concerned apart from my uncle who was running further down the order.
