If both Ott and Sebastien pass Jari-Matti, then it is clear that M-Sport will use team orders. Once again, this might even be detailed in contract of Ogier.Quote:

Ogier will win this now, please be real people.
how do you know this? have you seen the contract? he needs to be faster than Ott which he hasnt managed to do so far in the rally at all.Quote:

I'm afraid that is just what being real meansQuote:

I haven't seen Ogier's contract. It is only speculation like here always. But I would assume that there is something mentioned about 1-2 situation within cars runned by M-Sport in Ogier's contract. And believe me, I hope I am wrong.
Latvala is the key here.
a)Tanak passes him,Ogier doesn't:1.Tanak 2. Latvala 3.Ogier
b)Both Fords pass him:1:Ogier 2.Tanak 3.Latvala
c)Noone passes him:1.Latvala 2.Ogier 3.Tanak
Of course they are always possibilities of mechanical problems and driving errors.

I would be very very happy with a Tanak victory as well but I can't allow my brains to get those hopes.
7. He drove to the finish safe!Quote:

Incredible. Just incredible.
i wonder how Latvala will sleep tonight.
- A) very well as he is leading his almost favorite rally after day 2
- B) very bad knowing who is 2nd and 3rd and that they will push like hell tomorrow
My bet, considering his psychological strength, option B!
that's the scenario with most possibilities imho,tight gaps that cant allow tacticsQuote:

Wow, just incredible for Neuville to make such a stupid mistake with such a big lead, again!! Who would have thought Meeke wouldn't be the most gutted person in Sweden tonight!
Don't worry, I know You didn't;)Quote:

sick dogs everywhere i am really frustrated now.... i need my crazy pills....
Yeah, that was pretty bad.Quote:

Neuville hit a concrete block first that was exposed by probably Juho Hanninen.
Hyundai confirmed this to a Belgian journalist..
if this has happened its just unlucky.Lets wait for some more info,or onboard videos.Quote:

there was absolutely nothing to gain here. no power stage points, no big time difference. just a little bit a drifting for the crowd.
the last time i saw such a stupid crash must have been poland 2009, when latvala binned it on the last SSS.
