Technically retired as off rally route.

Problems for Neuville at end of stage, seems like gearboxcasing is overheated. They jumped out at stop-finish.

Neuville's car melting?

He has fund his way to the main road leading from the vineyard. Looks like he's heading straight back to the service area. He'll collect a five minute penalty for retiring.
clever, less time loss than 10 minutes, 5 minutes in 2 days, in this rally very possible, he is very lucky that it happend to him on the final stage of the day

WoW! this is going to be mad. unless Ogier not taking in 5 mins on an lunetic drive two days ahead...?

Might easily get up to 10th and score, and that's if everyones reaches the finish without problems, which is highly unlikely. And then there is the power stage.

It will be a 10 minute penalty - the minimum amount for any Rally 2 retirement.

Ogier should get into good points position in the next 2 days...

He is no Loeb.

Edit: If it is 10 minutes it should be interesting....
