Yessss Meeke !!
Evans rolled according to Henning....
Kubica: "It has been very difficult...yesterday stupid mistake...I'm driving like my grandmother going to the supermarket..."
So unnecessary. He was in ano man's land and should have backed off to bring the car home.Quote:

it's a rally everything can happen especially when you don't have experience
8.39.7 for Hirvonen.
Niiice Mikoooo :)
Ouch. No points for Meeke then, maybe even Ogi will miss out totally.Quote:

Is not anything against Kubica, but instead the should onboard from Ogier or Mekke or somebody else... Or find were Evans are off with the Heli. Instead for Kubica when i safeing thru the end...Quote:

Where is Breen?
Congratulations to Latvala. He seemsd quite relaxed and happy now, but again I think Ogier was the faster driver here.
Great job by Mikelssen; when he said before the rally he would go for a podium I don't think many of us believed him but he did it, and on pace too.
Disappointing again from Mikko. He was better than on Monte (couldn't have been worse really) but 2m26.9s off the win here on what would normally be one of his most competitive rallies.
Ostberg solid job, but I think he probably expected to do a little better here.
How so?Quote:

Now fight for the WRC2.. it is going to be close!
Yes, I meant PS points only.Quote:

This snow result won't change anything, and for the rest of the season we will see Ogier dominate again and JML crumple under pressure as he always does....Quote:

Great result by Mikkelsen though. I hope he can keep developing and score more podiums...
Go Kruuda! Go Printsport Racing!
Kruuda's car is ex-Lappi FRC car.
Proud to be Norwegian today, 2, 3 and 7th!
Congratulation to all 3 drivers and Codrivers.
Have seen all your other posts on this thread, so don't see a reason to argue with you.Quote:

And if Latvala delivers a challenge he might bring some finish fans back from their caves and then i can play with them once more....ooooh the nostalgia.
Yeah a decent day for you. And add to Sweden Rally a handful of medals grabbed in Sotchi.Quote:

Citroen (stronger this year than expected)
Tänak
Solberg
Tidemand

Kruuda

Hyundai
Kubica (I´m worrying if he´s really able to cope in WRC)
bad luck:
Evans
Prokop (second retirement in a row)
Grondal
Well, I'm not sure who to blame for that, but anyway Mads did't slow much the second time.Quote:

Somehow I see this Norwegian in different way now.

Overall has been an interesting event, some new/returning names and an unusual leaderboard!
Positives:
Great result for Jari Matti, he seemed lost in first day but finally fought back won it. Hope this boost his confidence for rest of the season
Andreas is fast, I hope he will mix with the big boys this year
Tanak was a big surprise
Mads also is quite ok, found it easily after the first and was on the pace after first day but too late for 1st/2nd
Ogier does mistakes and he fully accepts the blame!! Really liked his attitude here
Henning's end of stage interviews
Negatives:
Kubica's many errors. I was not expecting much more with pace but why so many errors????
Mikko's pace should have been better
Tidemand, have shown nothing
Hyundais. I believe suspension parts are way too weak
Yazeed throwing away RC2 victory
TV coverage, just not working for me. Prefer listening to radio, gives a better vibe of the event
