Just saw the daily highlights.
Mikkelsens' mistake was not on same spot as Ogier/Neuville/Meeke. It was quite innocent touch-up that you see with every driver on just about every stage, this kind would usually end with puncture if it's against rock/concrete but against sidebanks it typically does nothing. Double puncture from that is quite some luck.

I can´t really follow the line of thinking here.
One spare, two punctures = you won´t win
Two spares, two punctures = still in the game.
Knowing you have only one spare, shouldn´t it make you drive more careful? Loosing time also, maybe?
There´s also a car and a driver and also what happens in their interaction, eg. skillness is more important than a car going 0,1 sec slower with two spare.
So, no I don´t follow. And smooth roads and still a whole chunk of punctures?"Reis vas pät pat kaar vas kut"

But with two spares you need to push harder to not loose too much time to those who has one so...
It didn't work for the Citroëns with two spares, losing loads of time with 16 and 33sec behind in Nambucca in the first loop then Meek hits a bridge pushing too hard.
Hasn't been many punctures here, Breen had one off the rim?"Die with memories, not with dreams" Scott McIsaac

These bridges are quite tricky, you can easily loose a lot. It's better step back a little and get to the finish maybe sec slower and still be in the game. He is experienced enough and could know that... In the RBR (game) I was often crash into the bridge and lose all. And pretty muh every bridge was behind some corner and I push pretty much and not get t the finish.. Guys I know is the game but similar in the reality..
