Camilli cought Fourmaux who had a puncture.
It should be the same as was applied a few years ago to the crews who didn't do up their belts until they after they were moving.Quote:

good tyre strategy again by Hyundai..
Seems so - but with that much time lost, it doesn't really make any difference.Quote:

hats off
Tänak changed a flat tyre for a bare rim in the stage and back after the stage. Now he's driving on the flat tyre in the road section. Let's see if he can reach the service.
Yeah. Rubber on!!Quote:

wasnt it maybe so that he felt its puncture again on this stage, so he stopped and he actually changed the damaged rim from 1st stage and put the one which had at least tyre to the back and now changed it back again?Quote:

That's right Mirek, but great drive by AndreasQuote:

Stock studded tires in Scandinavia have similar stud length and every one driving here has experienced this.
Setup can also do a lot, first stage was tarmac and hard ice.
Note that Ogier and Neuville have exactly same time over the 2 stages combined.

Cause without the puncture he would automatically win the stage, based on?Quote:

The insight from Ostberg has been superb. They need rot get him signed up.
in car cameras have been dreadful - esp the Toyotas.
And SordoQuote:

That is unlikely to be a light penalty
Thierry's new co-driver could get a podium on debut! That will annoy Nicolas one would think.....
Have they mentioned it on the coverage yet?Quote:

Ogier saying that Hyundai used slightly worn studded tires since that makes the stud stick out more.
