Did you see fire or any smoke? "rear in a bushes" it's not a reason for fire.

Well if Citroen did something blatantly wrong (like telling Lappi to push SOS button) then they should and will be punished.

The other option is that they just went to the organizers and said "the car is in a turn and you don't have any marshals there to slow cars down, we don't want to get any dangerous situation or damage". Under this pressure the organizers could have decided to stop the stage. That kind of behavior is obviously questionable but they will be hardly punished as it was not their decision.

Did you see there wasn't any fire or smoke? Hopefully we get some clarification soon to get over this nonsense.

Molly misquoted Kris and said Meeke accused "You" of dirty tactics when speaking to Ogier.
Kris clearly said Citroen.

Obviously "you" in that case means Citroen which Ogier is part of. Clearly Ogier couldn't play dirty tactics when he is on the stage and can't communicate.

Yeah, I noticed that too.

No good will come of this.

guys, too much of conspiracy theories...
WRC cars have decent system which sends data to rally HQ in case of car stopped, G-forces, temperatures, etc, etc. So it's not that easy to cheat. Plus organizers also watching TV so seeing what is happening...
When you press red button, then ambulance needs to go, etc and nothing like that happened.
Also not pressing OK button during 1min is not automatically stopping the stage, if it would be like that then you will have it happening few times every wrc event (normal event, with +50 participants:), just look on Notice Board after the event, how many penalties for not pressing OK in time.
