It is never over until end.....Basso made a mistake and crashed....
unbelievable mistake from Basso...
Huttunen leading Scandola with 56 sec and with only 1 stage and 4 km to finish
Huttunen’s stage win on SS7 put the pressure on Basso
no because they had half minute difference,and Basso was taking it easy just to finish the rally.Of course as we have seen plenty of times,mistakes can happen even when going slow.Quote:

He must have realized that pace on SS7 wouldn’t have been enough.
Amazing result from Huttunen, another tactical win this year!
not enough 29 sec for 14 stage kms?Quote:

He could afford to go even slower at stage 8 and 9 compared to stage 7.
It wasnt Huttunes pace the problem.
Basso was not interested in Huttunen as he was not scoring points to italian championship...Quote:
