I thought it might an Ogier big push this afternoon, but he just seemed to drive his rhythm.
It seems the reports of his non-competitiveness were slightly premature. (ALERT this is British irony)Quote:

No pics from All Live ?
This Hyundai isnt treating him goodQuote:

If you look back I was sceptical that Mikkelsen was so far better than the rest. Ask yourself why everyone lost time to Ogier. I already said before this stage ‘tyres and notes’ - I forgot to add cojones!Quote:

top 4 within 8.6 seconds... but mikkelsen might be out of contention.
any info of the conditions of next stages?
Mikkelsen was a different matter altogether, nothing to do with Ogier.Quote:

another good stage by Citroen! Good work Pierre!
not a bad time by Paddon considering his starting position
Mikkelsens gearbox didnt sound healthy. Suspecting he is out of the game once again due to mechnical issues
Experience looks to count in this special, look at Kopecky´s time, he is gaining a lot over everyone else in R5 cars
Breen could have potential here, but he is still hampered with the handbrake/stalling issue, Ostberg is totally lost, hopefully he can find something till the end of the rally, he said after the tests that he has problems with the behaviour of the front of the car... We will see. And I don't think Meeke could do much better, only temporarily (until crash/puncture/etc.)...Quote:

Again Ogier take a Loeb.
He has studied the stages, and have planned on which to do a max attack.
He kills off the opposition by 10-30 sec on some longer stages using this tactic.
delay for this stage and it looks bone dry compared to previous
lol... the stage was wet and neuville tanak and mikkelsen had problems...Quote:
