Depends, maybe Yves asked him to push for victory.

we will see in the final press conffrence

Who said here a few years ago tarmac events are boring? Always in this rally, there are unpredictable things that happen. :)

Lundefaret, your words and sentences are very good. Nice to see that there are quite a lot of Norwegians that follow rally close after the Petter Solberg period.

It is indeed not easy to still be a fan of Jari-Matti Latvala due to his mistakes, but he has his very fast days and - as important for me - he is such a friendly person.

You absoutely have. And it was fast growing. ;)

Citroen would be crazy to drop Meeke. What alternatives do they have?

Just woke up and must say I'm quite shocked with the news of this morning! The problem with both JML and Meeke is you don't know how they will handle it psychologically as well, they both must be devestated. But after all it's their own fault...
Would have loved to see a championship battle emerge after a this year, but Jari threw it away. Let's hope Hyundai can keep it together and Evans can catch Mikkelsen.

Bouffier incar crash

Would be terrific for Neuville and Hyundai - his home rally and also home rally of the team!

Bouffier was dissapointing - but I don´t know if he had to drive with gravel gearbox all the rally and if his aim was to test the car with gravel gearbox on tarmac.

yes they would be crazy but sometimes they can be stupid, although really i don't see they have any alternatives-(no way they will go back to Hirvonen or Sordo, Mikkelsen is still with VW and so is Ogier & Latvala, Hyundai are all fetched either and Evans will stay with M-Sport so...)

Unfortunately he didn't impress in France, national rally, either. Where did you that he is running with gravel gearbox?
