Did my run in Mexico, video available tomorrowIn the meantime I noticed that next is Corsica, so I decided in my Cabel Club Weekly to do sort of a practice event, so if you need practice you can go there, starting tomorrow
althought at Guanajuatito I took a couple of corners too slow and had almost a "I went through the crowd" penalty 
)
It seems @Hasnain282 was unfortunate just like me, in the same stage, and did the same thingFor the information and fairness of everyone: I was the 1st to do Corsica and I was going into oblivion during Monte Alloradu, but I press start fast enough and I respawn with a 7 seconds penalty; I feel super ashamed
@MagpieRacer, I don't know if what I've done was legal in the scheme of thing but if you want to DQ me from this rally, I will accept it; if not then my action clearly now give permission to the others to do the same thing, for this rally at least
Video coming tomorrow like always

It happens, you're big enough to admit it may have been on the edge. The game can still DNF you despite resetting quickly so take it as a let off from the game that you could carry on 👍.For the information and fairness of everyone: I was the 1st to do Corsica and I was going into oblivion during Monte Alloradu, but I press start fast enough and I respawn with a 7 seconds penalty; I feel super ashamed

Anyway, here's the visual representation of what happened yesterday
Yeah, I know, it happened to me some times, you need to have quick reflexes
Even if it was a quick left......you trusted an easy corner........on Corsica.......never do that again
I had the same thing happen as well.
You're still on fire, nonetheless 🔥
Thanks, you're doing quite well yourself too! I've driven these stages a lot by now so that helps a lot. I might have been overly conservative and also made a couple errors so I don't expect to stay on top though.
If there's a Cex near where you live they do controller repairs for under £30 (don't remember the exact price), I've had controllers repaired from them previously with no issue.Sadly my participation might be put into question too, But not through choice. My Controller has developed some severe stick drift on the left analogue stick. I hadn't played WRC for a few days and I was having some odd inputs on the menus of other games and was Hoping it was nothing or a dodgy cable or something. I decided I just as well try and complete Corsica and see how bad it is but there was no use.
The car was steering by itself to the left very abruptly every 5 - 10 seconds which was impossible to predict or foresee. It caused me to go flying off into the valley on SS2 so much that I was surprised that it let me off with a 30sec penalty. Then it seemed to get worse there onwards. Sure enough a check in the settings and deadzones Etc shows large inputs on the left stick that I'm indeed not making. I wanted to keep going as any points would be useful especially if I get a new controller and continue but there was no point, I could hardly keep it in a straight line not to mention taking chunks out of every sods house going through the village
Sorry to @MagpieRacer and everyone competing, Normally I wouldn't think twice about replacing a controller but I've put so much dosh towards my PC setup/Gaming recently its come at a bad time. If I come across a good deal I will find it hard to resist I feel though
One of mine has stick drift, very annoying.Sadly my participation might be put into question too, But not through choice.

I hadn't played WRC for a few days and I was having some odd inputs on the menus of other games and was Hoping it was nothing or a dodgy cable or something. I decided to try and complete Corsica and see how bad it is as there's no way I'll get a new controller before It ends but there was no use.

If it costs anything close to 30 I'd prefer to just add a tenner and get a brand new one to be honest. I can't complain really Its lasted me a good while and even though I do look after my stuff it does get plenty of use.
As suspected, this rally is a slaughterhouse ☠️ Only 8 finished for the moment, only @ZeroTheNorth is missing for the top guys, unless he failed too and we don't know it yetMy trip to Corsica was somewhat short-lived as I promptly threw it into the scenery at the end of SS1. Shame as I usually enjoy the challenge of this rally. My post-Portugal switch to the Puma has conveniently timed itself with an awful run of form
I was busy lately, but had a go today. And off the road on SS4 and had to retire.As suspected, this rally is a slaughterhouse ☠️ Only 8 finished for the moment, only @ZeroTheNorth is missing for the top guys, unless he failed too and we don't know it yet
These stages are hell, and i was not pushing just trying to get to the finish. Ah well, atleast this one is out of the way. xD
