Ouch, very violent. Must have been terrifying seconds running to the car, not seeing the impact, just hearing that ominous loud bang... Those curses say it all, you don't normally whisper obscenities... Luckily they were okay. :up:

Congratulations to Seb and Daniel, simply the best duo. Amazing performance. Also very happy for Latvala, great tarmac result from him! He was like an excited little boy when telling what new ideas he has gotten for tarmac driving. :)

Congratulations Seb & Daniel, proud to be French... Nice to have been lucky enough to witness such achievement.
Also thank you for bringing so many people to watch and be interested in rally. if you hadn't be so successful, i am not sure any french tv would have bothered covering the rally. So big thanks for that!
Now let's enjoy the last 2 rounds, and can't wait for 2013.
Congrats again, and to Jari Matti and Mikko...

I've been out of contact all day so just caught up with the final stages. Mssrs Loeb and Elena have created a record which is unlikely ever to be equalled. Neuville now looks ready to be a number 2 in a works team. Chardonnet getting a point despite all his problems and stopping to assist Nasser is outstanding. Sad for Dani but imagine he'll give it all in Catalunya. So now Seb L can drive how he likes the showdown in Sardinia with JML should be something special ;)

Hayden Paddon's off as viewed from the onboard camera is on his facebook page. Such a simple thing causes so much dissapointment for any other time one would expect to get away with it.

There are videos online from Viasat and MotorsTV of coverage. MotorsTV has Colin Clark and Julian Porter. Viasat has Paul King.

indeed! lots of people were running there standing a bit further down the road. most people standing beside me (and me too) slowed down the next cars.

And he stopped driving whilst still on the road. (Look at finnish drivers (others as well) when going off they never stop having the plate in the bottom...)
