Someone could calculate what the difference would be if SS2 is left out of the calculations... I'm starting to like Ogier more and more. He is totally capable of winning Loeb and that in some way, seems to create some friction inside the team. Will we see more Citroen management (above the WRT) interventions during this season...? Anyway, it's a nice spice to WRC where everything is so polished and "office'd" nowdays.
Hänninen doing his first big mistake in SWRC. In the end, I don't know what caused the off because they had a special marking in the notes "care, gravel" but still went off. In Academy, first win for Breen. Lemes made only one mistake, but it was enough to lose the victory.
Organizers, make a 70% new itinerary for next year and I'll definately come there. ;) I like Germany!

The shot at 2:19 is just before that spot, I walked there after the 30th car or something like that. I have still some other footage, but can't make the video too long. The longer version (that will be sold on the 2011-Annual Review DVD) will probably contain more footage of that spot.Quote:

I think the former, since emotions are clearly running high within the Citroen camp. Had Ogier made some of the comments attributed to him in the cold light of a hotel lounge feature interview for L'Equipe then I'd view them differently. Also, what has been said in English and what in French - some stuff definitely gets lost in translation. Good win for Ogier but he shouldn't expect any charity for the remainder of this year - after all he did just get luck with a puncture for Loeb.Quote:

Speed matters though.
Personally I am just glad that Loeb didn't win this, it was starting to get silly in Germany year in year out & no other winners.
