"...Sadly, it was us that had the car issues on Saturday morning. It was just unbelievably bad luck and I couldn't believe it.
The initial clutch problem in SS14 – the first test of the second leg - was frustrating, and we would have lost a bit of time on hairpin corners, but it wouldn't have ended the rally for us. But then on the road section to SS15, the second test of the day, we had a warning on the dash and my heart immediately sank. It was an electrical problem and although Jonas [Andersson – my co-driver] and I tried our hardest to fix it – in constant contact with our engineer Nige – there was nothing we could do.
I was so frustrated that I kicked the car, and really hurt my foot. It shows how strong the Fiesta RS WRC is, as my foot definitely lost that one!..."

Imagine now that there is a sharp stone on that corner 10 cm right from VW wheel. Which suspension is more protected? Citroen or VW? By making longer suspension travel you make it also more prone to different obstacles. Could it be one reaon Why JM retired in Mexico?
Not sure why Andre has changed his editing style, his images have a slight 'pasty' feel to them these days possibly through too much shadow recovery. Still the best WRC photographer though.
