Hopefully he can at least salvage some powerstage points.

I doubt because he will be first on the road for power stage.

Remember they put rally2 guys in front for that stage.

Stewards ruling here http://rallysweden.com/wp-content/up...sion-no.-2.pdf
5 minutes due to exceeding maximum turbo pressure on SS1 to SS4

I don’t know but the torsby stage is quite snowy anyway

Light snow continuing to fall on the Linkenas stage giving a very fine dusting on the road. Forecast is for it to continue on and off all morning. Not expecting any heavy snow however. Temp -4c at stop line

To list from top
Neuville - spin SS10
Breen -into a bank SS8
Mikkelsen - spin SS10
Paddon - spin SS16
Østberg - nothing
Lappi - snowbank SS6
Latvala - nothing just very wide with timeloss on SS10
Sunninen - spin and snowbank SS10 and SS11
Tanak - crashout with Meeke
Ogier - spin SS7
Evans - at least 3? spins

Just made the same list...Østberg's only mistake has been only going wide at the end of Hagfors.

Top speeds trough finish there:

Toyotas 198-197
Fords 194 ish
Citroen 192
Hyundais 189

This is pretty much the same numbers as we saw in Finland last year.

When I'm looking at his face after every stage here in Sweden and in Monte I think that his days in Citroen may be numbered

I remember reading a story from one of the older generation drivers (maybe Blomquist or Waldegaard?) about taking sandwiches to eat on the straights in the Saab 96, I guess they only have time for a drink now that cars are faster.
