the sounds are so intimidating, can never get bored of that

[@_salvadorr]

i hope codemasters is taking notes for sound making

[@pedpinto]

underrated comment

[@ascgazz]

Have you seen the website/release clip?
Seems pretty good to me.

[@Maier___]

They always nailed sounds mate

[@foovay]

Best fun I've had all day 😊

[@GinoFoto]

Suspension breathing while accelerating is
amazing, almost as dance.

[@awdobsession717]

We need more coverage like this 👍🏻

[@erickmukere1552]

Indeed, I support 100%.

[@jamesgrahamhutchens1179]

More fun than tyre warmers 😂

[@paulo..ferreira]

This is a dance I never get tired of!

[@dejanzelko8361]

If you are sitting on one of those sailing boat you have an excelent experience and view 😊

And the sport of Rally Dancing was born....

[@rallyrobx7604]

You might be on to something. Slap a few rules here and there, a point system, I am already loving it without that stuff. Oh and you need guy walking around the side of the track like in the begining of the video. If you hit that guy you are deducted a point.

[@DetroitMicroSound]

😄 ....I wish my mk7.5 Fiesta could dance like that! @@rallyrobx7604

[@ajisusilo8576]

Gr yaris thats sound beast

[@erickmukere1552]

Katsuta always seamless in the transition!

[@enockmurithi2734]

Dancing WRC cars love it

[@ranjitsian5481]

Nice 👍

[@agitbagus2747]

love it

[@HAV0X_]

does tire temp matter that much for rally? i didnt think it did much over mechanical grip

[@huwzebediahthomas9193]

On tarmac yes. Think this is before the street stage, SS1.

[@awdobsession717]

They’re also checking suspension and braking adjustments.

[@beracinq]

Yes! Also, they have new tyres on. Ney tyres have a sort of layer of rubber on it, that is really slippry (the shining stuff you see on new tyres). Want to get rid of that as well.

[@robertrizky4184]

and driver wants to warmup the brake bcz. of didn't have booster brake on this car

[@timtene]

This is so cool!

[@e2rqey]

if only M-Sport got points for the best donuts....

[@huwzebediahthomas9193]

Why didn't they shove them in heating bags like F1 use? Suppose you have to beast them at the same time. Good luck all. 👍

[@awdobsession717]

Because they are also checking suspension adjustments simultaneously.

[@bearded_toad]

Regulations actually allow tyre-warmers but it's the rally organisers decision whether to provide them or not. Since Acropolis is mostly gravel, warmers weren't really necessary
Edit: looks like I was wrong, the Tyre Warming Zone is just a place like the one in the video, so no blankets :P

Warming the suspension dampers oil, yes. 👍

Hardest compound available - global warming....

[@beracinq]

Also, you dont have a team of full mechanics running with you to every stage. They do that infront of every stage.
Even more important (for smaller size wheels) is the brake temp. It keeps the tyres also warm from the inside.

[@4g5y]

F1 formation lap is so lame in comparison 😅
