You know, when there is no more rubber and you drive until the end of stage with rim or pieces of rubber still left, rim tends to break as well ;)Quote:

Hyundai will not appeal to Neuville's speeding penalty
It has not been noticed I think (or I miss it) but it is podium number 52 of Neuville in WRC: he ties with Solberg in 10th position all-time.
The other drivers he could catch this season:
- Auriol (9th with 53)
- Alen (8th with 56)
Complicated to catch Gronholm this season (7th with 61)
The next active driver (not being Ogier or Loeb) is Sordo with 51
Tanak a little far with 35
Teams defend Pirelli over Croatia puncture situation
Tires were a big talking point after several drivers picked up multiple punctures

Some drivers told: "I am happy I dont need to use Pirelli tyres on my way back home from the event." :DQuote:

Which again caused some of tires off the rim
Of course they defend Pirelli; as an official supplier, it's best not to say anything bad.Quote:

Do we have to say something more?
They can explain all they want.....Rally cars have been cutting on Tarmac events for years, I don't recall so many issues.
