Shame about Abbring.
SS9: Breen 4 sec faster than Lappi this time ... great battle.
And only 4 starts remaining...Quote:

Maybee the few kgs lighter has helped Craig - almost 2 seconds more pulled back on EL on the shortest stage of the day. Should be a great battle tomorrow.
Thanks for posting this photo Eddie! I love it! I'm sure the painter in the background is checking if the rear screen is still on Breen's car :DQuote:

It looks like Abbring can start again tomorrow.
How are the rules of homologation? When can they fix the known problem?
Several sources including @Official_iRally state 'Abbring said to have broken radiator over jump'.Quote:

Dont think this was the cause of the radiator problem in Acropolis was it ?
