St Bonnet still covered the whole way through, can't see the road at all in some places -36minutes

Finally ss10 much clearer in first half, still lots of ice and crap pulled out in cuts in 2nd half. Will be run @ sundown - big challenge.

Stage 8, slightly warmer - now only -6C. Clear of snow / definite line through it on 70% of stage, final few km still covered.

It is not possible to put studs back on the tyre.

Ha, ha, attitude from Ogier ! :D

lol

Ogier is the kind of guy who can't fathom the possibility of someone being better than him. Everyone can see through his "I don't care" BS.

JML struggling again ... 10 sec off team-mate Ogier this stage.

Novikov over-cautious on the tarmac to save the tyres - will push on the next stage. :)
