22,4 sec for 39 km now. Seems Paddon he can do it
:)....awesome
So now there´s not misadvantage going first on the road? Only when Ogier runs first?
Paddon says the i20 #WRC has stalled it in a pair of forks. Bad time to engine failure.
Camilli did surprisingly nice time.:) He might get to the 7th place yet...
that stage (or part of it)had run twice yesterday if iam not mistaken. Maybe not so big cleaning at today pass.Quote:

and without anyone noticing, Neuville has climbed up to 6th...good manufacturer points if both he and Sordo can keep it on the road, and on that note, let's hope Paddon finishes the rally 1st...
Yes but in my experience police always overestimate everything by at least 2x..:uhoh:Quote:

So even accounting for these well known rigid facts, say there's 10,000 in one stage far away and up in the mountains---that's pretty crazy.
N'ext pas?
http://www.autosport.com/news/report...-running-order has anyone heard about this?
Pity that he's earning for the Mobis team N, rather than the factory team.Quote:

Capito's quote cracks me up, suggesting that Ogier 'gets asked about one issue all day' instead of Ogier being the one that brings it up at the end of every single stage.Quote:

i am not surprised.Quote:

It is true
Irony I believe it's called...Quote:

Ah i forget that was 1st on road too.
it was due to the fog though... Ogier took around 10 seconds off on the clear section.Quote:

Visibility changed constantly in the strong winds but Ogier, starting just three minutes earlier than Paddon was similarly affected in his Volkswagen Polo R.
Evans also setting great stage times in WRC2..
we dont know ''how much less'' fog had Tanak.Probably yes he had. But we saw from other stages too this weekend,that fiesta isnt underpowered nor undeveloped with Tanaks times at some stages.Was very near the top guys when they were fighting,and not cruising. All these with Dmacks...Quote:

With nothing to lose I suspect he is in Latvala zone. Anything can happen at any time. Still that's better than the team No1 being in Bertelli zone!Quote:

Next stage is on.
Camilli up at Split 1 ?!
Yep, seems like he's getting confident and pushing for 7th place. I wonder if he crashes.:-D
Mads is up now at Split 1 - 3.6s !
EDIT - All splits getting faster and faster...
you do realise that the guys you are excitied about are just cruising right ?Quote:
