Four norweigans in the top six on this stage. Suits the stage well when it actually goes through norway. :)

But maybe this is just the start and the 1,6 T cars will be developed into better cars that S2000 cars cant beat.

In my opinion it's just about road conditions. This can't repeat often. Do You remember how McShea with slow Proton drove in Ireland or when someone with gr.N car won icy stage in Monte Carlo in 1990'? Or this year when R1 car was 10th in stage on Monte? Normally it can't happen but sometimes the conditions make it better for late cars ;)

I know road position has a lot of influence. But we hav'nt seen signs of this potential in Mads recent years shen he has been driving the Subaru. This makes me wonder, how bad was actually the Impreza 2008?

I think road conditions has something to do with it when Anders Grøndal is 7`th on this stage in gr.N Subaru and beating Loeb with 13seconds :D

Well, interesting morning. Luckily all the new cars are still in the race :-) Clean sweep of stage wins for Ford so far in 2011. Räikkönen faster than Loeb :-P I like when everything is not usual :-)

I just saw the results thus far and I'm stunned. Never would've predicted a shakeup like this. Hopefully running order won't affect Loeb much more and he will claw his way back.

The boost problems on the Fords will be scrutinised with a fine tooth comb over the service break for the Factory drivers to see if they show signs of it too, plus Matt's power steering issue. Mass test session with the wealth of Fiesta's on stage.

This means he is going again for crashking, just as he did in 2010.
