And news from Karlstad, Seb will continue tomorrow.

Does anybody know exactly why Urmo retired in SS 7?

Urmo went off the road in SS7 and got stuck in the ditch. The car is fine and he will superally tomorrow.

How will he get manufacturer points? thought you had to be in the top 10 to get them?

No, only manufacturer cars take manufacturer points. And if You're 8th manufacturer car You got 1 point no matter if Your 8th or 50th overal ;)

No. When you are in the top 8 from factory teams (Ford, Citroën, Subaru, Suzuki) and M2-teams (only Stobart this year), you can score automatically points. Group N cars or real privateers with WRC cars before Loeb are not important to score manufacturer points.

SWRT did use Sachs dampers but changed in 2007 to BOS. There was a bit of an improvement with the BOS suspension. Maybe Reiger are better still?
