Evans can restart tomorrow and take some PS points. If Kalle retires Evans can in theory can still get more points in what is left of the season.

EDIT: I'm slow :)

So could Kalle, as long as he doesn’t bin it tomorrow.

No, I was slow (in the head) for not thinking of that possibility, although admittedly so very slim that it's practically non-existent.

True but now it’s 99.9% done.

Someone asked for any driver saying he actually had fun on the stage. Fourmaux just said that :)

I'm a bit disappointed in Rovanperä immediately surrendering the lead now.

Spin with lucky/master escape for Mikkelsen.

Mikkelsen spun into a ditch but managed to get back on the road.
