Can't think of any logical reason Thierry would do that in the circumstances, must be a mistake... Maybe he was thinking too much that Ogier said he is not fighting him for the championship :P

Probably Breen is also not too sad about Neuvilles penalty
Some pre-conclusions - before rally I thought it will be Tänak vs Toyotas, but it more turned to be Rovanperä vs Hyndais. Now there is just to wait that no sh*t happens and well deserved results can be delivered.
Lucky not to damage the radiator here.Quote:

He's learning very quickly.
He'll need to increase his pace for next year when his younger (and reportedly faster) brother Bruno joins the fight.
9th position in Class RC1 for Manufacturer points.Quote:

Bulacia seems now for the moment reached his maximum. Let´s hope he reaches finishline.
Yes, sadly she hasn't improved much from Monte 2020 (at that time there were big boots to fill with Colin Clark going to Dirtfish and Molly Pettit being on maternal leave).Quote:

Little dig at the tyres again by Mads.
Chris Rawes from ERC Radio would be perfect.Quote:

All the moaning is a shame because he has done a good job developing that car and he can pedal it pretty fast too. Just think the competition was a little stronger this weekend now Mikelssen has got on top of the Fabia a bit and Lukyanuk obviously putting them both in the shade.Quote:

Tanak huge on PS!!!
Dunno what to think. I think it would have been pretty easy win for Tänak, I wonder how much he regrets the push on Friday.
He will still have learnt something. MSport will know why the result wasn’t better. Respectable performance vs. Suninen.Quote:

Masterpiece from Tänak from split1 to split2, on that "this is not a stage"
This stage would fit Safari better, and the Safari power stage would fit this rally
Ogier why so angry?
Seems Tanak got the best of the road conditions and made the ruts bigger for the rest.
So they didn't make sure Breen takes a penalty?
Great job by Breen. Deserves a full-time seat now.
Breen slowing for Neuville?
If they'll play those games, it comes after stage.Quote:

Rovanperä makes WRC history - awesome win !
Congrats to Kalle and Janne to their maiden victory. Also to our finnish mates..
Huge job done, well done Rovanperä!
... as Rovanperä kind of lives in Estonia, win still comes to Estonia ;) Congrats to all Fins, long waited win arrived :)
Sooo nice to see them on the roof!!
