Confirmed that car number 2 Mikko Hirvonen is excluded because of a non conforming clutch. Ostberg wins Rally Portugal

Yes, Hirvonen was driving without clutch. :D

I've literally never felt more stupid! Glad nobody took me up on this bet :s

I obviously meant he'll never win a rally not on snow... from now on! :D

Don't blame yourself!!!I am more impressed with Neuville and I could easier support him in comparison to Mads...

Can I go to sleep - or the "Mikko's clutch" is a real story?

It seems real, and if it's not then it's very cruel joke on Mads!

Will they inspect other ds3s?

Wow. Incredible.

Could I get something concrete on this - they have to release to Stewards Decision, right?

Nothing on autosport.com, nothing on wrc.com -- I think we might have a case of April Fools here. ;)
