I agree that penalties need to come in to reduce the contact, but compare Petter's pass with Hansen's at Holjes in 2015...give Petter a 5 second penalty, it shows that you won't accept it but it doesn't trash the championship. Especially when you see some of the racing today that went unpunished. I think we need to see more penalties in RX, but they need to be fair, reasonable and, above all, they need to be consistent.

Great win for Loeb, probably the first time in RX that we've seen him drive as we know he's capable. I think it's a mark of a number of the other drivers (Solberg, Ekstrom, Bakkerud and Kristoffosen especially) that it took him so long to win one.
