No-one has broken any contracts here. If the reports are true, there was a buy-out clause in Ogier's contract and TGR simply exercised it. Fair deal. And if anyone feels it was "too easy" for Ogier...

If Östberg's pace in 2018 is anything to judge by, Lappi should be really strong in Finland from that starting position.

I don't get how it makes Lappi's situation any better if others have had bad rallies too. "Look Pierre, you can't be mad at me, Latvala and Mikkelsen have performed poorly as well". Ok, but in all...

Oh yes, most definitely. Based on 2018 one must have nine titles to be able to win with the C3. So from that point of view: 1) the car is shit, 2) Ogier will struggle.
