Ogier fast on first split, seems like playing tactics before.
Jari-Matti is in big problems tough, loosing allready more then 40 secs on second split.
Novikov needs 3 minutes to JML, this could be possible on that stage. Loosing 40 seconds on first 6 minutes, stage has 35 minutes ...
Ogier problems seems be fixed, so congrats!
Look at the first split of Lappi, is this correct???
First split not serious, but Wiegand missing? Hope its a mistake.
At split 4, overall gap between JML and Novikov: 1:48! And still 20 minutes to go!
Edit: Split 5: Overall gap 1:29,9! JML is fighting!
Edit 2: Wiegand + 6 minutes ...
Wiegand +6:41 at first split??
Wiegand +6:41 at first split??
EDIT: Following cars (Barrable, Bouffier and Fuchs) obstructed by Wiegand?
Sordo 2nd on road and yet only 3,9s slower than Mikko? :eek:
Ostberg 4th on road and miles faster?
we have to count that Sordo has better left tyres due to his retirementQuote:

The best solution that I found to live broadcast: wrc.com/fanzone/wrc-live/livestream/
i have to agree unfortunately.Quote:

Mikko is just a quick and reliable driver, but he lacks top talent. He's good for 1 or 2 wins a year, but no more than that.
Yes! :-) Service park with view to the big screen where Live Coverage is shown! Great!Quote:

Whats wrong with Kubica?
Finally some reliability problems for the new car.
Is it their third rally in a row with that same transmission?
When looking at the split times it seems like maybe he´s stuck in a traffic jam caused by Wiegand?Quote:

You can't satisfy every one, if the driver is careful like Mikko there are unhappy people about his speed, when other is fast but crashes or car is broken as a result of it there are another people not happy. When I have to spend a lot of money to go to stages Rally2 is the last thing that worries me, I want to watch as many cars as possible. Also I read some rally drivers explanation regarding Rally2, if someone retires and still is ahead of some drivers that means they are too slow and deserve to be beaten by Rally2 drivers anyway. The whole idea of Rally2 was to give spectators opportunity to see as much as possible.Quote:

Looks like this was lurking since friday. Polo appears to be strong machine as Latvala also managed to the service.Quote:

PS - 1 JML, 2 Ogier, 3 Ostberg
It's not easy for WRC journalists
Regarding the tyres. Prokop yesterday did two stages with only FWD (broken rear diff). He said he destroyed totally the tyres with only FWD and had only 4 good left for today (except soft ones).

It's because Belgium is tri-lingual. Most know they speak Flemmish and French but there is a series of small regions/counties to the east of the country that is german speaking. I think it's app. 75.000 german speaking belgians. Neuville is from that area and his first language is German. He only recently learned French according to my sources.Quote:
