I totally agree that it's not the event it once was and that the Safari name probably isn't deserved. I think it still warrants its place on the calendar though - it's still a huge technical challenge, it's still different in character to other events and it's still taking top level rallying into Africa. It's an event I look forward to - some of the images that come out of this rally are superb and really showcase the sport (the coverage could and should be better though).
