the wear marks also showed they didnt wear like that, thats how they were made! so we looked at the new ones and found a lot of the left hand ones were the same!!!
during the day we found out that several others had the same tyres issues... so dunlop nz will have some explainging to do....
Thats Insane! Cant believe they used faulty tyres.
I was in the timing crew for stages 4 and 7 and it was awesome being part of the rally and seein all the cars doing jumps on the end of stage 10! Special mention goes to a Honda Jazz who slid down a bank into some trees AFTER the stage finish! Pity the final stage was stopwatch timed! We had a full set of timing gear and would have been able to help with it as we finished stage 10 on sunday. I cant believe the margin between 1st and 2nd was only .1 of a second! Maybe they should start timing the cars to 2 decimal places
