So, the first time since long I visited a rally-event... And also our first time at the Condroz Rallye in Belgium. It was raining a lot so the environment was very slippery with the clay soil, making it tricky for me as a photographer, but even more difficult for the cars to get through the stages undamaged. We didn't have a map of the stages so we kind of followed the other spectators around. Not the quickest way to get to the action we found out. In the end we we're completely soaked, but we had a fun day and were left with a couple of reasonable pictures:
Loeb in action right before a hairpin, you can see he is already pulling the handbrake.
A lot of spray from the wet track
This Fiesta broke eventually I think, by the final stage we watched on saturday it sounded really bad.
Jullien has a close call, after miscalculating his speed he slides of the course over the mud and wet leaves, but keeps his foot down and miraculously resumes his way without even hitting a single tree!
Eventually he did crash, I found this video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akiN-GrxSzg
S5 Impreza still fast and looking good!
I have a series of shots from the close call of Jullien with the Mini WRC as well!
