Stewards give Nicolas Ciamen back 12.0 seconds lost on SS5 when held up by driver who had changed puncture.
Ciamen goes into Sunday just 13.8 seconds behind Mads Ostberg in fight for P9 overall and P2 in #RC2

Omen for Evans ?
Vic Elford was the last Britsh winner of the ERC over 50 years ago... until Chris ingram last year.
Vic Elford was the last Britsh winner of the Monte over 50 years ago... until...

I'm not saying he isn't doing well. I'm saying he is doing what i expected, going slow and learning.Quote:

Any comments/info on Sean Johnston, driver from the U.S., currently leading RC4?
Østberg, who clipped a bank and had a puncture.Quote:

When hiring Rovanperä, Toyota was maybe looking a bit broader timeframe than just this Monte.Quote:

Some spying going on between them?
Don't see Mads leading the R5 class by a calendar.. Kalle is a future top driver, rally winner and potential WDC.. While Ostberg will 99% never win a rally in WRC and by the speed he is also in the middle..Quote:

Last year Elfyn Evans missed these Sunday stages because of his accident on Saturday. Meanwhile Ogier and Neuville were pushing hard on these stages a year ago. #WRClive #WRC #RallyeMonteCarlo
He is good driver, but level of RC4 (or better whole 2WD) on Monte is quite poor...Quote:

good time from Takamoto, only 3s slower than Suninen
He was unimpressive in JWRC the past two years, but he has a silly moustache. I like his silly moustache.Quote:

He was doing JWRC only last year, not year before. He was really improving during last year. But like I told, level of 2WD on Monte is not so high.Quote:

Neuville on a mission, virtually passed Ogier
Neuville with a massive time could lead this rally after this stage!

even circuit racing has bigger gaps, than this :D after 15 stages in Monte, top 3 in 6.2 seconds
Oh dear what a rally. Is this the new standard for Monte?
Fantastic

nice attack from Neuville!
lets see how they will response at next one.
I am getting a feeling that Ogier is not pushing 100%, not only today but also most of yesterday. Doesn't want to risk missing point advantage when Tanak is already out?
He isn´t giving free points to Neuville...Quote:

He never pushed 100% when not confident. And now he confirmed that on all live. If you don't understand that - it's your problems.Quote:

Suninen's revised start time is 0913hrs.
Ss12 delayed. New start time 0913hrs
Edit: I was late
