Talking Official: World Rally Championship (WRC) Thread

So this year's gotten off to a fun start. At least Ogier hasn't won every rally thus far

The greatest thing that has transpired recently is the addition of WRC coverage in the U.S.A.!!! MavTV has added quite a bit of WRC coverage though I'm not sure if they're going to cover every round the same based on the schedule on their website:

MAVTV - World Rally Championship LIVE

Regardless, WRC Mexico was on this weekend with each day's action televised on the SAME DAY!!! We're finally living the high life! Even though I didn't have to torrent this round, I did so I could seed it for everyone else stuck in the land of no WRC

So please give it up for MavTV (owned by Lucas Oil Products) and contact them to let them know how happy you are that they're broadcasting WRC in the US!

Literally was thinking about making this thread yesterday!

I haven't watched a rally yet, so I need to hit the torrents and download them.

I've been contemplating starting a WRC thread for a few years. I figured it was time now that we've got WRC back on 'Murican television

So the recce for Portugal was partially flooded and some recce vehicles had to be towed out of the flooded portion(s) of the stage:

Recce washout in flooded Portugal - wrc.com

Should be an interesting round this weekend!

Interesting. I'm still planning on torrenting the individual days once they're posted. We'll be watching on Tuesday night.

Great rally! Stoked for Sordo, even though his rally did not end the way he had likely planned. The good news is that he's getting a seat for Rally Argentina because of his performance! Anyone else get a chance to watch it yet?
