Big air for Latvala.
Sun 12:33 - SS19: Ostberg
One second slower than Neuville on stage and it looks like 7th for Mads. "A difficult rally to sum up but today has been good. The car works well and it's nice to have a car that does what I want and allows me to focus on my driving. I've been on the limit http://www.petrolheads.gr/images/smi...um/s6vhaha.gifand a little bit more."
Maybe he was pushing, but if you look only on results of today, still nothing impressive - http://rally-base.com/2016/vodafone-...sId=3477&leg=3Quote:

i think that Latvala time will be not enough. Mikkelsen at 1st pass had 6.49,2 and road seems much faster
YepQuote:

Now come on Kris... get that Union Jack flag back on the top where it belongs.
The Bridge/Bron music on replays.
Yesssss... Meeke wins !!! :D
Perfect drive by Meeke... first clean win in the WRC... well done.
Great drive by Mikkelsen as well.
Yes!!!
Someone should count how many times does Jon Desborough say Dungannon during a stage.

Haha, indeed. I counted at least 5.Quote:

Definately more. He has said it 3 times after Kris finished. I think it could be over 10.Quote:

By the way: did we have in the past this situation: VW not winning two races in the row??
We'd all be in the hospital before Meeke reaches the finish.Quote:

Sun 13:03 - SS19: WRC 2 Pedder
Late drama for the Aussie who spins in the final section and loses third position to Aasen by two-tenths! "It happened under braking. Damn! Stupid mistake!"
Very solid and well deserved win for Meeke/Nagle. Mikkelsen done a great job as well. Think Sordo should have some cheers too.
And Tidemand wins WRC2. Also nice for a scandinavian... ;)
Meeke is British.

I don't think many people feared Kris was going to chuck it off as he might have in the past. It's just more experience and another big tick in the box ahead of next season. WRC fans deserve a big title fight and hopefully we get some great cars.
Same as last time Meeke won - why the big fascination to pin this on a nationality? Especially given everything that's gone before.Quote:

Great drive by Tidemand in WRC2 and great event for the Fabia R5. Shame about Evans' problem but I think Tidemand had the edge here.
Frustrated with/annoyed by Kopecký's double puncture on leg one. He was fastest in WRC2 yesterday and second fastest today.
We were definitely denied a big battle in WRC2. Hard to compare the pace of a guy with nothing to lose like Suninen, and Tidemand when he is trying to bring it home. We also never really saw the best of Evans - but he has certainly used up his good fortunes since the start of the year. Fuchs and Pedder impressed me.Quote:
