WRC Rally, Yumps and Choppers
I took a Red Bull busload to the WRC Rally near Brynderwn and spent the day watching the cars and the fifteen helicopters. Here's a few pics. (The jumps are called yumps by the Swedes and Finns).



Jari-Matti Latvala and Mikko Hirvonen of Finland.

Sebastien Loeb and Sebastien Ogier from France. Note Loeb's crumpled door, where he hit a bridge that probably cost him the rally win.

Sardel from Sweden and Solberg from Norway. Not sure if this is Henning or Petter Solberg.

Tuonino of Finland and Dani Sordo of Spain.

Mark Tapper (NZ) and Wilson (UK). Steel-nerved photographers.
