Seriously, Ogier is a very lucky driver, also a very good driver. Combine both of luck and talent and you are contender WRC champion!!
Lolololol
Ogier moaning again about loosing time all the days ahahahahhahahahahahahhahhaha!!!
What a let down.. :(
Helluva time from Ogier.... But I did wonder if Andreas could handle the pressure...

5 times speeding under recce, and 2 times under transport. Just a warning and a 1300€ fine.
Kubica hade to high turboboost, impossible for hum to do anything with, its an ecu/msport thing.
5 min penalty. Ridiculous....
Yes great.

The best driver did not win.
What Neuville did with a car which is far from the level which ogier drives.
Neuville is the man of the match by far!!!!!
Is it correct that VW II is not entered in Manu WRC this year?
Good rally for RK - fast, one stage win and without an off/accident, unfortunately with some other misluck during the rally
Very sorry for Mikkelsen. He could have broken another barrier by winning in Sweden. It is always good for the head to get the forst cut in your Gunstock!
Hopefully later in 2015.
but what a rally with 3 cars fighting for victory on the last stage, lets hope for more of those to come!
Was a good event, Mikelssen's time will come, not impossible he will beat Latvala this year.
Positives for me:
- Neuville in contention for win in an inferior car
- Decent drive by Kubica (he was a mess here last year iirc)
- Good debut for Abbring with little experience of the car or event.
Negatives:
- Disappointing drive by Tanak. The result wasn't bad but his times against Evans were not too impressive.
- Ostberg's sulking (at least Meeke blames himself and not the car)
- WRC2 turned out a bit boring after much hype
All in all a great rally. Lots of battles in the front and also in the mid-pack. Two of the battles (for the win and for 6th place) coming all the way to the last stage where small mistakes (Mikkelsen and Meeke) decided the final outcome...isn't this what everybody wants?
Sure, I would have liked for Mikkelsen or Neuville to win too (and don't worry, both of them will win a lot in the future), but nobody can seriously deny that Ogier didn't deserve and fight for this win as much as anybody. And just look at the reactions by the other drivers at the end of the stage to Ogier's time...they simply couldn't believe it. That is something that you don't see everyday.
Not disappointed that Ogier won on the last stage, I expected him to, but it was a shame to see him celebrating on the roof of the car before his team-mate Mikkelsen had even finished the stage.
Ogier has by far the best car of everybody driving there.
If vw builds 10 WRC engines there is always an engine which has just that little more then the other 9 engines. Who do you think has that engine in his car.
I have seen it happen in my race career also!!!

@Official_iRally
Man of Rally Sweden: Andreas Mikkelsen. Leads from Day 2, spins on final stage, gets out to congratulate Ogier. Sportsmanship.
Al Rajhi secure his 4th in WRC2 from pushing Pontus
Latvala is 34 points behind...Quote:

I'm very happy for Hyundai and their great results, although they ruined pick'ems basicly for everyone!!!
Good! :
1) Neuville able to fight in top
2) Kubica pretty OK fast on snow
3)Heart braking last stage battle!
4)Protasov stage Win!!
Bad!
1)Tanak forced to keep calm, asked to keep position.
2)Not happy for citroen loosing out fight in top.
3)Not happy for Ogier, who alway manages to go faster if He needs to! Great talant, comitment an bravery!!
to conclude, Shitroen, hate VW (that is Captio & Ogier) I'm sorry but Ogier is kind of a jerk celebrating whilst his team mate was in trouble, i don't like him, in fact i hate him, there i said it. i know he's good and everything but he is better the everyone else at the moment, but i really hope someone, anyone will kick his ass in a straight fight, and on a more positive note,well done Hyundai-if they continue like this they might be able to challange VW once they get the new car, citroen very shitty rally-they should just leave the sport before it gets too embarssing. M-Sport, not to shabby. R-K. finally didn't role or something. good debut for Abbring & Paddon, & Nevuille-please win a rally this year.
They are a Team, not Manufacturer, so Monte was not nominated in their list of rallies but Sweden is.Quote:

Come on... had the retiree on a trip to Monte Carlo also 50 Hp more than Ogier? And at least 150 Hp more than Meeke and Ostberg?Quote:

2. Kubica, didnt believe that he would be so fast like he was and he didnt crash this time.
3. Great debut for Abbring and great drive from Paddon. Abbring will be the one to look in future.
4. Maturity of Tänak, after 5 stages saw that he cant fight with the top guys because of his starting position and settled in to drive in his own rhytm. If it had been 2012 he would still have pushed like hell and ended up in a snowbank, like he actually did in Rally Sweden 2012 2 or 3 times, lol.
Negative
1.Weather, everybody talked about the most perfect conditions in many years and how Ogier will struggle because of that. Didnt happen.
2.Citroen guys, Meeke with a mistake second race in a row.
3.Latvala.
are you serious?Quote:
