How often or when was the last time a rookie won a stage? This is KC's first rally ever.

I'm curious how long the buggy will last in this violence. Sainz's already bit the dust... seems to be Nasser's is due to follow.

Good question; KTM just tweeted the last one to pull this off was team mate Ruben Faria in 2006. doyle and Packmule might know better.

Thanks Mods for keeping the Clif Notes up to date!

Very little hope for me today to stay up with the Main F5irehose during L'Etape, that work thing.

Very sad to hear about Thomas, R.I.P.

Very awesome to hear about Kurt!!

KM 76

The battle between the race leaders is close because the front three are within thirty seconds of each other. Naser Al-Attiyah leads Robby Gordon's Hummer by a small 16 seconds and the Mini of Stéphane Peterhansel by 35”. Quicker than the bikes on this section, the top speeds are reaching 180 kmph.

I know mostly its just for us, and the Team F5 reporter fund is a good idea, but its something to start pushing somewhat earlier than mid race

We could probably get some art thats not too year specific, threreby being able to use it more than once? or at least with small changes.

Also, apparently Apple wants $20 for the use of their command logo

So lets continue to cogitate on this one, eh?

why not make stickers then you can f5 beer mugs AND coffee cups and skip the apple ransom

it can happen on any offroad or rally type race.. either on transit or the special stage.. people dont watch for bikes.. on stage the 00 car opens the stage but they cant lock it up people can wander on to stages very easily..

sad but true ... racing can take your life in an instant
