RBTV didn't show nothing by herself, they show only what show WRCTVQuote:

#WRC Hyundaï Motorsport confirmed Paddon retirement after crash SS13 #RallySardegna ... Sorry for u @HaydenPaddon #nevergiveup
Shame for Paddon. A victory here was very much needed.
But now Tänak needs to keep it on the road. If this stands, Tänak and Latvala are back in the race for the title.
If it could do 140kph with that it could reach the stage no problem. My bet is that the top ear of the part on the damper that connects to the hub broke and it was just hanging by the lower bolt.Quote:

You can do 140 kph with no rear wheels at all but for how long is the question.Quote:

Great splits by Ogier !
Very fast till the end. The stage before he said something felt wrong in the car. Couldn't have been so bad it seems.Quote:

Lets compare them with Tanak to see how fast they are(Ogier splits)
Dang Ott not letting off. I hope he's not risking too much.
This. He needs a win.Quote:

lets see how Tanak will manage his tyres at next long one stage.
Yeah, I was going to say that too. Also, maybe it'll pay off to conserve second. He's blisteringly quick in Poland and I expect him to win Finland like he's done so many times before so perhaps he'll snatch some more points in the second half of the year as he always does (did).Quote:

Lol at Neuville so sure he would be first. Said that 2 times at least now
Three Toyota's in the Top 5 now.
Come on Ott bring it home!
Thierry Neuville @thierryneuville
SS14 "Good stage for us. I'm enjoying. I decided to keep good tyres for the Power Stage tomorrow so I have to be more careful now"
