Come on chaps, let's keep this thread about the rally. We've had a page and a half of this earlier.

Steve

Afrenoon stages should get heavy snow and heavy wet snow. Hagfors second run should also get some wet snow. For Karlstad, it will be either wet snow or rain.
It looks that there will be enough snow to cause trouble for the first cars on the road.
But it will be very close indeed.. Temperature is just between the border of snow and rain!

WAKE UP MODERATORS!

Looks like Moderators trying to close WRC discussion here, just post from privileged users and ban notification

It's first time I've heard former driver/co-driver following rally via net. Usually they fly to the route in a heli.

Neuville reported stopped in the stage

Which is it, Meeke is surprisingly slow or Evans is surprisingly fast? Meeke is much more experienced yet they are separated only by approx 20 secs.

Not good

:rolleyes: and have a heavy sigh too. Mirek is not banned. There is an ongoing matter he is concerned with but only the forum owner or an administrator can resolve. In the meantime can we stop hysteria and stop typing in CAPITAL LETTERS!!!!!!
Back to the subject of this thread please and less wild accusations too (or else ;))

In overall classification by 23,8 secs.

Spin for Ott, and pacenotes problems.

First time here, good morning!

Pardon my rookie question, but are there any live streaming sites that have any on-stage cameras for Sweden? WRC.com only has empty paddock views......... :o

Latvala is on a charge today

Big Push from JML -interesting!

OGIER STOP??????

Ogier has stopped....and is moving again

he is moving,probably on snowbank?

Come on JML!

Stopped again, not good

stopped again = WRR speculating that he may be clearing snow from radiator

Hanaaaa Jari-Matti hanaaaaaaaa.......now MAX ATTACK!!! Go Go. Great time!

Ogier out..... ?????? :o

Ogier stops again and is passed by Al Rajhi - poss clearing snow from radiator and air intakes @SebOgier

Worst place to hit problems, it's long way to midday service.

Thierry moving again! great!

WOW :eek:

Neuville is moving again but team says he has damaged wheel carrier @HyundaiWRC @thierryneuville

Now fortune way back from Ogier

Top 5 covered by 20secs....delicately poised :smokin: :bounce:

and long way to service, not big chance to reach a goal

Very difficult for Neuville and Gilsoul: even if they can effect emergency repairs, still 42.75km to Service

Yes, Meeke is relatively slow. He has said he's only driving at 90%. First ever winter rally, just taking it handy and not interested in times.
