What were the organizers thinking when they came up with the rally course? Which was my favorite event from the last few years.
You practice the course in one configuration, qualify in another, test again in the opposite direction, and the actual races are finally in the correct direction. Add onto that that you are not allowed to have a co-driver to give directions. Add onto that further, because the course is a complete clusterf*ck.
In one 2 minute race you have to make at least 8 hairpin turns on the same hillside. It's redundant and confusing. The "road" section of the course is a small circle completed in 4 seconds max.
Just now, (due to the HORRIBLE track design) two drivers were headed towards each other at full speed on the same side of the road.
Out of the 5-6 races so far, 1 (ONE!) has been completed. Seriously, scrap the competition, put together a sensible course, and rerun the whole event.
