REMEMBER cars not only slide around corners, they send a shower of stones and rocks out behind them as the power goes on. If you are in the firing line you can get hurt so stand where you are safe.

the Spectator Control car will come through the stages about 20 minutes ahead of the competitors to keep you informed as to the progress of the rally. Be aware that if you, and others, are in an unsafe position the Safety Officer has the authority to delay a stage, and in an extreme situation, request its cancellation.

the MSA provide general guidance as to the unsafe areas where spectators should not position themselves,

Please observe the following: DO NOT walk on the stages once the stage is live, you are putting yourself and the competitors at risk,

DO NOT stand in the prohibited areas.

DO NOT take dogs into the forest with you, if one gets loose and runs in front of a car the result can be imagined.

DO please follow the marshals instructions, they are there to help keep you safe, not spoil your enjoyment.

DO wear sensible clothing and walking boots or good stout shoes, these forests are not Union Street and the going is sometimes rough.

DO be careful if you have small children with you, if a car goes off it happens very fast and you need to be able to react as quickly. Far better to be in a safe place in the first instance.
