Javier M Posted January 15, 2020 Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 I think he was going too much to the right side and was afraid to run over the people there, seems he was trying his best to correct it and try to go through the path, you can see he is reducing his speed. or he just need some basic offroad classes. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frederic Posted January 15, 2020 Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 Did nobody noticed the absolute knobhead who was taking a selfie while Alonso was flying over the dune ? I have the impression that the spectators were basically forcing him to change direction, they were all in the way. 4 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Usually all rally and race drivers follow the tracks very precisely as they are well aware that many photographer and their own team support guys are standing at each post. This seems he approached way too fast to have such a huge jump, he would have still taken off if he would have crossed from left or right in place of photographers IMO. What I feel that when he realized in a split second that airborne is inevitable he steer left to have sideways roll (higher chances of survival and keeping vehicle intact) than nose dive which could be fatal. 3 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Asif Hussain Posted January 15, 2020 Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 He wanted to go straight and fly and land on flat ground but for some reason he slowed at last moment and tried to cross sideways but he couldn't control.
