that sums up the rally for me

There was somebody predicting Brynildsen would easily beat Evans. He was badly wrong...
Great fight between Åhlin, Evans and Tidemand.
Eyvind is not so good driver...Quote:

Great battle between Ahlin, Evans and Tidemand. Beside Ogier's quite bit advantage, the WRC 2 competition seems to me the most interesting and enjoyable. I hope that R5's people will keep their pace up and deliver more emotions.
He thought one driveshaft had broken on last stage, but Evans is quick.Quote:

But all in all a nice battle, and more interessting than WRC, where the lead normally is subscribed to by a Sebastian.
But battle for second is good!
I think it would be nice if some big video-group of fans (I mean for example BORL) would focus just on WRC2 and make some 20-30 minutes magazine after each round. Nearly every single fan would appreciate it (and it means also profits from advertisements etc.)Quote:

To me, it seems in these conditions that the new Fiesta R5 is at least equal to the Skoda.
Even when service was in Hagfors there was still no midday service. The Norway stages are too far away to come back for.Quote:

Somewhat Impressive start by Bergkvist. About 33s off the WRC2 lead on first attempt. Hope his consistency stays and his speed improves.
Is Mikkelsen is playing psych games with Ogier, giving up the win, and hoping for relaxation on Ogier, and a mistake?
Fri 13:37 - SS7: Mikkelsen
19.9sec slower than Ogier and his car has damage to the left side of its front bumper. "I lost the rear a bit and hit a tree stump, it spun the car around and I stalled. I lost a lot of time. I think my chance for first place is gone. It's all about second place now."
A mind game with Ogier? You do realise that's impossible?Quote:

gonna be great time by Paddon as well
Tänak just 2.4 secs from podium. Dmacks seem to work well but im still sure they arent as good as michelins.
Good time by breen... helped by conditions of course but still!
Has anyone looked at 3rd to 7th in the overall standings.. Crazy good battle going on there.
Both guys are ill having fever and Jocke Sjöberg is vomiting between stages. Emil says he hopes to be more fresh tommorrow so he can drive 100%...!!!Quote:

Pontus some problems? Lost almost one minute.
Great time by Breen - he's really enjoying himself now ! :D
“I feel completely at one with this car, I feel I’ve been given a great opportunity”
Gutted for Tidemand, broken drive shaft.
First cars are complaining about a lot of snow on the road, later runners benefit. but quite good time anywayQuote:

SS7: BREEN
Third quickest - and he's quicker than Ogier by 1.2sec! "How do you explain that? I'm almost lost for words! I feel completely at one with this car. With this car I feel like I've been given a huge opportunity - It's like I've found a Willy Wonka golden ticket!"
Loads of broken drive shafts... is there something in the road or are they all going off and damaging them?
