ahaa.. there was a tire stop after the stage 8 and Loeb was the onlyone to take 4 new tires on. The trick is that if you changed tires after the stage 8, then those tires were deleted from your quota. And Loeb used his old tires from yesterday for stage 8. At the end of stage 11 we will see if it was good idea. He lost 12.2 sec to Ogier on SS8 (old rubber) and took 5.1 back now (new rubber).
Testing for Ogier ...
Don't say that :) You're going to make fall some hair which stay on the Quesnel head...

3) Solberg, P. [Citroen] +16.5
