There is no other way to find someone to regularly beat Ogier. None of established drivers seems to be able to do so.

It's bit early for the general conclusions, but anyway - Ogier seems to truly enjoy this event, I can't say the same for Loeb which hasn't been very comfortable here. I expected more speed from Latvala, but to be honest, 4th will be great result for him considering Monte disaster. Looks like is taking more wise approach now, which I haven't seen so far from him previous seasons. With so little experience with the car, this is the right way to do it, step by step, without too much drama. Perhaps he had serious talks with the team management. Ostberg is justifying my expectations, and with little more luck on friday, he could be ahead of Loeb now. Lets see what happens tomorrow on "his" territory.

And here is my video from day 2 of the Swedish Rally.
The first place at Sågen didn't work out so well but i walked back a bit and got a massive sideways moment by Henning.
Hope you enjoy and sorry if it's a bit much of the same at Sågen 2 and Rämmen, not always so easy to move around!

Ostberg I hoped would be better than this, but still 3rd isn't bad.

To be fair, he had lots of problems with the car yesterday morning with overheating problem
so its' not really fair to blame him for being so far behind and besides Ogier have driven really really well.

very nice spots! thank you!

Keep in mind the fact that Ogier has also 20 seconds penalty because of that problem.ˇand he lost 8.8 seconds with that problematic overheating on stage 2. Without these seconds he would be on pair (2 seconds behind) with Loeb who has pushed like hell today. That is not bad at all!

Östberg, not Ogier. :p ;)

But sure, you are correct.
