I am really pist right now. If it is true that citroen will be disqualified from all 4 events then Petter will lead with 79 points ahead of Östberg who will have 63 points and Novikov 48
Aha, I know his drive was due to help from local sponsors, but this was a works entry from Toyota.Quote:

Brazil WRT 10

This should be one of the awkwardest rallies in the last years...
That can't happen. Any decision will only affect Portugal as all other events are over, done, dusted and results declared final.Quote:

ok tomorrow is school day.... all the under-aged kids go to bed and stop posting.
Funny thing - Mads do not know anything about this situation! He is sleeping now. Our guys try to call him now.Quote:

At the rate Ford drivers destroy their cars by the next round everything is normal again.
EDIT: Ninja Edit.
In other words and given the fact that none of the benefited drivers have a chance against Loeb its like Portugal never took place....Quote:

Quite nice list locked with norwegian eyes :) has it ever been 2 norwegian in top 3 before? Insane weekend, sad for Mads to win like this, but GRATULERER MADS OG JONAS!!!!!!!!
He is not sleeping. And he most certainly knows what has happened. (I think even dad Morten will have a couple of glasses with portuguese red tonight!)Quote:

I was wondering why someone got 22 seconds penalty. The first time I see it :-)
Wales 2011, Mads second and Henning thirdQuote:

Point 2 in the decisions suggests that there will be further investigations and that other penalties may possibly be forthcoming?
