Not really big I think, I saw just one big slide on a slow muddy corner

I was only looking from big screen the onboard.. well.. I could not count those moments :-) But it was really entertaining!

If I were Hyundai, I'd be pretty annoyed at whoever decided to drop Bouffier from the lineup!! Interesting to see if the battle may continue later or if Ogier will run away with it now.

Who would you have dropped, past Monte winner Bouffier, 2013 wonderkid junior Neuville, or one of the best no.2s the sport has ever seen Sordo? They chose their fastest driver and their banker, didnt work out this time but they had 3 men for the job and 2 cars, someone had to miss out.

Shame of Kubica, but watching Ogier incar their its incredible that RK was running at that pace, Ogier is an incredible driver but he has had lucky bounces this weekend that another time could have been damage and real time loss

Haha, no not just one.. ;) At least 3-4... I see at least 2 big ones. But okey, no one of them had ended his rally if he had gone off the road. But in SS9, he drove at least 100% ;)

The difference between him and the others is that he ofc has a lot amount of skills but he is a hot head, he goes flat out there no one else tries... He is special in a good way, but a bit boring that he always win! :smokin:

I saw at least two big moments where he did superb to prevent a spin. Slow right hander with house inside and a left hander with mud inside where he went into the field a bit.

Sordo is a much better choice I think in the long run!

Hang me if you will :)

But Bryan and Dani in Monte would have been a perfect setup.

Sordo did it very well as long as the car worked.

reading that Kubica car doesn't seem to be damaged..shame there's no Rally2 on Monte
