That's easy:
Neuville -driver mistake
Tanak - weak car
Sordo - bad luck

At Toyota it's:
Evans -bad luck
Ogier - stupid organisers/bad car
Rovanpera - driver mistake

Summing up the general pre-assumptions about each driver.;)

Ostberg got a €1000 fine for the swear words at stage end + 25 points penalty with suspension.

That's reasonable. 1000 euro is nothing while 25 points is huge. So a heads up not to do it. Was by far not the first time and was not just one word that slipped.

25 point suspension? Fkn h3ll..
will start to hear less stage end comments if such things start to happen...

better to drive with open strapped helmet or causing accidents on roads..

Year by year WRC is becoming more of a joke! If one can't be allowed to express true emotions without getting penalized, what is the whole point of having incar cameras facing to drivers, or having incar driver sounds or stage end interviews, etc. On stage ends WRC+ could just as well then start to play different PR and advertising scripts send by manufacturers PR departments. To my opinion they should give +25 points to Mads for being human, not a stupid PR robot.

5 swear words in one interview in English and before that about as many in Norwegian without turning audio off.

Pirelli in F1.. two max speed punctures and heavy crashes for Stroll and now Verstappen.
