That would defeat whole purpose of restarting which was implemented to get more cars into stages. Besides, how would you know if their late check into TC wasn't due to genuine problem? Incidentally, we've seen this before, I am thinking Richard Burns changing tyre in Australia 2000 I think.Quote:

There already is the same rule for Sunday. Any timepenalties mean no PS points, no matter how "genuine" they were.Quote:

I like this little stage 12. Good road, small enough to see the whole of each run for each car, but a proper stage unlike like the stadiums.
Doesn't that rule apply only for Power Stage or do you refer to something else?Quote:

Whats going on for Meeke? /no tv for me/
Toyota does have problems. Just no luck for Kris unfortunately for him
Did they change the jump? the landing looks different now
He's driving through in road mode.
I believe it applies to any TC penalty trough whole sunday, but it only means you don't get PS points, nothing about manus.Quote:

Nice couple of stage side camera positions being used near the end. NOT's army of photographers after the crappy fake jump should learn some lessons from the WRC TV guys...
Wow, so slow. Right rear wheel at an angle.
Oh man I’m worried about Tänak now. 2 Toyota’s already broken Down
I feel really sorry for Meeke. He's no child of fortune at all.
Shots fired
"Citroen played some dirty tactics this morning." - Meeke.
Dirty tactics...? Meeke maybe do know what did go on.
Lappi pushed the red button on seeing Ogier's puncture...? (Following Meeke's comment)
I was just about to post the same :)Quote:

So interesting on what ground the decision was taken and on what information...
only the leading drivers of the 4 different teams are remaining now.Quote:

It all makes sense now, seen that Ogier face before...
It was red flagged before Ogier passed Lappi.Quote:

it was his mistake to dont stop and change the wheel with so many stage kms left.Quote:

That's irrelevant. If Lappi did push the SOS button (pure speculation) he did it on the team order not on his own decision.Quote:

It does seem awfully strange; not just WHY they red flagged the stage, but WHEN they decided to do it.Quote:

Deciding to come late in to TC has a rule for it.
Red flagging in times doesn´t.
how would Lappi know about it and react so prompt? naaah, just another conspiracy theory :)Quote:

Ummm, I don't think so because that would have been emergency call and stage would have been stoppped, not red flagged, and rescue crews would have been sent on the spot.Quote:
