Very Finnish emotions from Suninen :D
And I'm still convinced the jump is way smaller than before.
Great drive, Teemu!
Lol at suninen. “I’m very happy” with that stoned face and no emotions at all :p
Commentators;
"sunninen is so happy right now. I think I even saw him smile"
I died laughing...
a safe drive now by neuville and if any points come its a plus....
Nice overall drive from Evans; from nothing to a podium, as he's always done. Hopefully he can keep up the pace for Sardinia but I wouldn't hold my breath.
Well done Teemu! First correct guess for my crystal ball
wow.... great drive by Neuville !!!! well done !!!!
Mega weekend for Neuville, 19 point lead in the champ!
Am I dreaming? Is this comment real?! :DQuote:

However I am bit split as to how much to praise all 3 of these for their performance since they all got there after the friday massacre and basically only ever fought with Sordo and each other. With the drivers that were typically faster than them either out (Tanak, Paddon), not really competing (Ogier, Latvala, Mikkelsen) or cleaning the road (Breen, Meeke). If these were in position to fight would that mean that Evans and co would fight for 6-7 like usual? Impossible to tell.
Very well deserved victory for a brave man. Neuville! Also Tidemand.
well done Neuville
Congrats to Neville, well deserved victory. Keep the fight on....
This statement is ridiculous every corner has a limit it can b taken at regardless of suspension travel these guys will take that corner at the absoloute limit and over it sometimes cause thats what wins rallysQuote:

What a powerstage, exiting till the end.
impressed by the youngsters, they dared.
very good result for Neuville, with Ogier with 0 points.
For a all live viewer it is not good enough that the timingsystem is not able to work 100%.
in almost all other sports they are able to get times live in split seconds.
I can understand it is hard in some stages, but the powerstage they need to improve, so we get more splits, where the clock count downwards to the current stage leader. Will make the show even better!

Gary Boyd Kiwifan winning the WRC giveaway. Congrats!!
I am happy because now we have a fight...
but i also cry for Tanak today :(:(:(:(:( worthless brazilian marshals of shit !!!!!
Dream weekend for Neuville getting nearly maximum points and Ogier, Tanak and Meeke none.
Any bad luck last year is repaid here and the Title is now in his own hands.
Nice job by Evans & Teemu is good for M-Sport but not taking points off Neuville means its not really any consolation.
dafuq?? :laugh:Quote:

Big congratz to Neuville, Evans and Sunninen good rally for them. But if we still have Tanak, Latvala, Mikkelsen, Padon, Ogier and Meeke in a rally I think that podium for this two M-sport guys would be impossible. But they get it, and a rest - nope, so congratz!
First win for north korea at WRC :D

But they still can get early penalty and didn't arrive in time for regroup before PS, where this "given order" decidesQuote:

"To be honest, it was not a big mistake on Friday, just a few inches in a trajectory, maybe it's just a mistake in taking notes, I've been through this very often and I did not never seen this little root difficult to distinguish with the shadows in the forest.It is expensive paid.In the Power Stage, no chance to do anything.I was at the limit and it was going faster and faster as the cars passed, "detailed Ogier at our microphone.
Virgin weekend for the Frenchman, who remains stuck at 100 points in the championship. "Neuville takes the lead, it's not going to change my approach, the pressure is still there, last year for example because it was an intense and tight championship, it's not the moment to worry, we have not yet passed the mid-season, Neuville will open in Sardinia, it will be fun, "concluded the Ford driver.

Congrats to Neuville! Took the maximum while his closest rivals got zero points. Ogier isnt far away but the gap with Tänak is huge, basically 50 points and it will be very hard for him to catch Neuville with that Yaris suspension made out of sugar and the cooling problems with the engine from time to time.
But you never know, Neuville was basically 40 points behind Ogier in the beginning of last season but lead after Finland.
Nice to see some speed from Evans after a while and Suninen finally performed like i expected. His speed so far this season had been disappointing but great performance here.
Again a very good performance from Sordo, the guy is ahead of Mikkelsen in the standings now.
Expected more from Lappi, nice drive without mistakes but i expected more speed from him based on the season so far and considering his starting position on friday.
It was really nice to have Paddon back and good to see he has the speed but a little bit unfortunate with that accident.
Overall quite a carnage rally which i didnt expect at all.
Next round please!
