Not sure how Google Translator will cope with it. :)

Yes, 11 stages is a very good effort. We managed 7, and that was only because we got lucky seeing an extra one on Sunday.

Interesting what people have been saying about the snow banks being softer this year, I guess if the Finns are used to leaning on them a lot then this probably did hamper them.

Both were very, very lucky there, especially Ogier whose bank was neglitible as he was too much off the road there.

Smoth driving with perfect timing in breaking and steering in, has always been rewarded faster times than going sideways all the time. Loeb is the master of thet driving style. Although he was very, I say very lucky coming back on the road on Sunday stage when he drove 105%...
