But it means the spectators don't have to keep driving around all day.Quote:

But it was bit unrealistical to come in sweden without any preparation rally with wrc-car. At least I did expect that he would have participated to arctic rally in order to get in groove.
What did I predict Loeb to do after 3rd split? He does 8:44.5. Wasn't as slow.Quote:

Good split for Raikkonen.
Not quite but he is on a flyer. Just +0.5 slower than Sordo after 1st split.Quote:

In 1000 Lakes we had +50 and no repeats.
I wonder whether JML has found his missing speed or is this due to a fact that his tyres are in better shape than others
Yeah, but most of those were short ones.Quote:

SOLBERG P. / MILLS P. (st. č. 11) "I'm happy with time."
he is happy with 19secs loss at 18 km? :rolleyes: wtf?
He was probably happy with his pace before he overshot a junction.
If Latvala now destroy ford it will be delicious..
Sounds right. Is this the first time when Ford has been more clever in tyre tactics than Citroen+Quote:

Could Mikkelsen catch PG? Andersson has admitted he's cruising and he may not care if Mikkelsen beats him as he isn't in the SWRC in Sweden. There is still 100km tomorrow plus a SSS tonight so who knows.
