Yeah I hooted when I saw that. Good, it's about time someone did something about that incident. Pretty shitty and dangerous stunt.

According to the rulebook the only penalty for that is a few hundred Euros. Though a Truck did get excluded from the Rally for a similar incident with a car. Then again the truck pretty much destroyed the rear of the car when he hit it.

was the Italian motorcyclist able to continue the race after his bike was submerged?

I believe he was but then dropped out either later in the stage or in the following stage.

 

EDIT: Actually he's still in the Rally 52nd in class 15:05:59 back.
