no you lost.
When Mads pushed (pushing in his terms=1 minute behind 4th overall) lost his wheel.

Try to understand that his is not fast.
Waiting others to retire and gain their positions,is very different from trying to be really fast.
You see that today.
And please no more excuses about his starting order,the fiesta that its not fast,and that its not a works team.
Fiesta and team are up to win rallies.

If it wasn't Abbring, it would be Camilli, so what?

EDIT: Actually I'm not surprised for a stage win, I'm surprised it is a very long stage and in my perspective with his driving style his tyres wouldn't last that long. Is he driving differently on those long stages?

" I'm not really quite sure what we met when I see inboard, other than that it was hard. We came forward with rear-wheel drive, but right before the finish the car stopped completely. The loose shaft has damaged one or other of the motor, and it was just to park. "

Up to this was Mads and Ola in the fight for the podium, and there is a disappointed Mads, who continues: "This was properly sour. We've resolved the issues that have slowed us earlier this year before this race and we had a car which worked out perfectly. Then we are ready to fight for the top times again and the fight for a podium place in the race. We would have liked to been in the fight until the goal. But that's it, and that's the game. Very rough roads here, but it's whatever I like sitting at the wheel who are responsible. "

It is not clear whether Mads and Ola can start again tomorrow. But with an engine that is not running, so it is doubtful. The team manages the incredible when it comes to repairing cars in record time, but the damage to the engine, there are strict restrictions on what they are allowed to change. The decision on it will be taken when the vehicle returns to service.

I didn't see that rock on the highlight, but he hit a stone side gate wall. I'm not sure how this would break a driveshaft though....

Yes, I just looked highlights, he cut too much, hit the gate-wall inside and that broke the car, that was strong impact while wheel turned out, usually it is the way to break steering or take a wheel off.

Mads was the only one with right tyre choice.

do not say that to me... speak to your Swedish friend who apparently had a beer too many and thinks Ostberg ascended to a fast rally driver from a street dog.

By the way Lappi 6th time overal on SS16 near equal with Ogier...

Camilli faster than both Neuville and Latvala who are fighting for the victory. Very good!

Nice! Really pleased for Camilli. A stage win and some real signs of progress.

Indeed, stunning time by Lappi. Now he is off the leash he can show what he can do.

Starting position plays a big role in his success in this rally, but overall I'm impressed too!

I expected to see this kind of speed in the second half of the season but he is already showing it now.

so...Latvala conceding defeat?, poor Hyundai, never bet on the right horse...instead of taking away 37 points, only 12 now...

Seems that the stage is getting slower. It is so soft that I am not sure if all 2WD cars are able to pass the stage

When was the last time we've had 5 different rally winners in the last 5 events?

This is why the current rules with pretend second teams is so silly.

Lappi disagrees.

So how come that Lappi who started 21th with R5 finished 7th just behind Mikkelsen and ahead of Sordo? ;)

Edit: Ron was faster :)

Cooling problem for Camilli and the engine is stopped several times between arrival and the stop points.

Yeah, showing what he can do when no pressure. Not competitive man to man. (Although I expect him to be fast and not dissing him)

When we see Camilli, with so little experience setting great times, I do wonder what a really fast and experienced driver could do with a Fiesta.

No man just judging by what he did. Came home from work minutes before comment.
