Please don't start this again. We had it on the table for years with Sordo...
There was no reason for team orders pushing Ogier ahead. It's JML who needs points to catch Neuville in the overall standings. Ogier is already champion and for manufacturer title it doesn't matter who of them is first and who is second.
they did not issue orders for Ogier to win, they just told Latvala that winning the manufacturers championship is more important than him winning the event, his 2nd loop times indicate that. That doesn't take anything away from Ogiers win, it was just a bit dissapointing that Latvala did not fight for the win.

One thing is to become a champ.
Another is to get the manu title signed to your account, too, at the VW debuet in the very first WRC year.
At the end of the day the statistic is all that counts and makes one "great".

VW clinched the title at the moment of Sordo's retirement. They had 80-point advantage before the rally, so even a double non-finish from VW and a win for Hirvonen wouldn't brought the difference to less than 48 points (i.e. max for a rally).

Maximum score for manufacturer is 25 + 18 = 43.

Power stage points are for drivers only.
