I spectated last day of WRC Croatia Rally 2021

almost 3 years ago

Hi, friends!

It is finally over. My adventure of three weeks following works teams on testing and rally day by day came to an end.

Of course, I was spectating the final day as well with two of my co-drivers - Damir P and Mladen, with lots of other drivers from our national championship.

When I look at everything, it was a good learning and I saw where professionals push the gas pedal where we won't.

Professionals are just more committed in the corners but they are at the world rally championship scene and there is reason why they are at the top of the sport.

Today we saw two special stages - first run through Zagorska Sela and 2nd run through the same special stage but that was also the final special stage of the rally which is also called Power Stage.

All in all, we saw eight special stages out of 20 which is pretty good score when we talk about rallying because you must move from stage to stage which is not that easy because I had to drive 180km/h in places to come at time just before of the start of another special stage.

Am I satisfied? Yes I am. I didn't drive this rally but I can put myself into the skin of the guys who drove it and the only thing I can't understand 100% is how to prepare yourself mentally for the big and hard rally. Maybe we think about it as too hard bu the only thing is for sure: you must be relaxed 100% before the rally to perform totally.

So, Ogier won against Elfyn Evans with gap of only 0.6s. Thierry Neuville finished 3rd while Ott Tanak was 4th.

You can watch the videos and the last one was mine from the nice jump in the middle of the forest.

Enjoy...
