Somebody was asking what happened to Ogier's car, here is the team statement:
"Six hours after he stopped the engine of his Polo R WRC shortly before the end of Special Stage 2, Sébastien Ogier returned to the service park in Carlos Paz. "The first ten kilometres were perfectly normal," said the World Champion looking back at the morning. "Then the car suddenly lost power and it sounded like it was only running on three cylinders." Ogier and co-driver Julien Ingrassia were initially able to keep going, albeit at a reduced speed.
But the two World Champions' hopes of reaching the finish were dashed. "After about 45 kilometres, the car kept on losing power, then the engine cut out completely." Ogier and Ingrassia used the on-board alarm electronics to try and find the problem. "Unfortunately it didn't work."
The Polo R WRC with car number 9 isn't back in service yet, so the engineers haven't started an in-depth analysis. "If we're lucky, it's only a faulty sensor or a problem with the fuel supply. Then we will probably be able to drive again tomorrow," said Ogier."
Meeke has a great chance this time, good luck to him.
