Sordo and his driving for other manufacturers shows very clearly that Loebs dominance is mostly caused by his skills and not by Citroën and their "cheating"...

Well he could increase his luck by changing his driving style.

However imo its not bad luck to continuously doing mistakes. Petter is so experienced that these
things shouldn't happen. At least not so often.

Everyone (including Loeb) can make a mistake once or twice but not as much as the Ford boys.

Heavy right hand damage for Neuville ... might have rolled

The base for a new choice in Ford is being built this weekend...

Loeb is kicking a$$ on this stage....

Once again, Thierry Neuville shows performance, but followed by inconsistency(seems to have crashed again) :mark:

So Hirvonen already handing the lead to Seb? Sordo not doing bad though, btw... And I must say I got somewhat impressed about Oliveira's pace in the previous stage... :D (I have to cheer to my mates, at least...)

It's his first year in WRC car on world stages. Mistakes and crashes are rather normal in this career stadium. Give him time.
