    It looks straight, but is approaching a 90 degree left hand turn (you can see it at the end of the video). Apparently under heavy braking the inside front wheel gets caught in a pothole and launches the car into the crowd of people. The camera man is probably the most sensible person, he's standing behind a tree.

    Were the people concerned OK? Didn't look like anyone was really badly hurt by the car, although I can't say I'd like to be hit by a speeding rally car.

    ouch, that dude in the yellow coat gets instantly twisted and bounced out of view, im sure his pelvis/spine wasnt good after that. good to see that at least 2 of them were capable of jumping right up again :)

    ouch wouldn’t like to be the guy in the blue rain coat looks like he gets it head on.

    Don’t rally’s have safety standards crowds at set distance etc..?
