So, what happens in the Power Stage? Can Loeb win the rally, but allow Craig to take more PS points? With less than 10 secs lead and Ogier to run after him, it seems impossible to 'stage manage' the result for M-Sport.

No, Loeb has to go flat out if he wants the win.Quote:

I don't think 9.5s is enough to play games. They will all do as well as they can.Quote:

a 10s lead on a 14k stage.Quote:

Without a drivers championship to think of, Ogier will push like crazy. 110% win it or bin it. If he was doing the full year 2nd wouldn't feel like such a disaster
i dont like these punctures at all
We should all feel incredibly privileged. We're about to see Ogier and Loeb, the absolute GOATs of the sport, fighting each other with 110% of their power. On their strongest rally, their home rally.
Things like this don't happen often.
Same for Loeb, isn't it. If Loeb goes off Breen is there. It will be a maximum attack Seb vs Seb.Quote:

I know luck has played its part, but what a privilege it is to be able to witness such a battle. Incredible.
Which spare tires did Ogier have with him, same compound as he one that deflated?
Both Loeb and Ogier have 6 soft if I remember correctly.Quote:

SVT with Jonas Kruse!
Check your pacemaker, it will be put to the test in a few minutes!
For sure Ogier will push, but pity it isn't a few secs less so that Loeb would also have to push max.
Yes. Very good broadcast. Kruse knows much about things going on. Even better now when he and Maria are on sight.Quote:

Great job by Neuville considering all the car issues he's had to cope with.
All feelings came out after finish line for TN...
Thierry looks pretty annoyed. Did the camera crew fall to the ground there?
Top work by Gus... excellent consistency and no mistakes all weekend.
Nice run by Kalle!
Kalle!! Fastest so far by 0,9 s over Evans.
If WRC+ was smart, they'd focus on Ogier and Loeb's runs instead of Breen cruising in 6th.
The very epitome of a solid rally by Breen to bring home a great podium on Monte. Perfect for the Ch'ship as best of the full season drivers.
Penalty for Ogier. Game over. What a shame, we've been robbed of a great fight. Unless Loeb has an "oopsie", of course.
10 sec penalty jump start for Ogier
Jump start for Ogier
the maestro tricked and won him
What!? How did that happen?
