1/10??? for Neuville? absolutely absurd. Good thing these things have little meaning, with all due respect to dirtfish.Quote:

True, can't ignore that.Quote:

Lappi and Loubet both DNF FridayQuote:

For me
Kalle was 10/10
Ott 9,5/10
Neuville in stages 8/10 (Powerstage mistake was his own)
others deserve lower than those 3.
Besides the ratings, he has a point about road behavior. A rally is not just driving fast on the stages, it's also doing the road sections and checking in at the right time, it's repairing the car if necessary, etc. as the WRC3 leader found out in this rally, and Tanak found out last year when he didn't have a road worthy car, it's part of the game.
WRC needs to wake up and draw a hard line on these road section offences in my opinion, rallying can't afford a bad high profile incident.
it happened a year ago. crashing on the road section and escaping police too, for the same reason btw: reach start line on time.Quote:

Forget the community service and fine which are nothingburgers, is this in the sporting spirit: If you are 6 minutes late, you get 1 minute time penalty. If you do 156kph in 80kph limit, you get 1 minute time penalty if you are caught and at the steward's discretion.
