In my opinion, blaming Matton is a bit ham handed.

He had Neuville and let him go. It was apparent very quickly that Hirvonen had lost his mojo. Meeke has been chosen as the best bet available (given Tanak was an unknown quantity) but always seems not to be given full backing (which he defintely needs to perform well). Sorry these are all Matton decisions. The only excuse I'll make for him is the diversion of money for the WTCC Loeb vanity project.

Ogier mistake

this is from yesterday

Slow first split for Ogier.

and Sordo didn't try gain some time over Ogier

Neuville in a difficult position now. Attack or consolidate?

Consolidate. Its 2nd at worst for him under normal conditions. Get the points.

Ouch Latvala, oil leaking...

Stage times from the citroens seem to hold up all of a sudden. Conditions in their favor?

He has one more stage to go before service. Would it (in theory) be legal to stop at a petrol station and buy more?

it's damper oil
