The question of the day: Will medium JWRC driver Burkart beat Rautenbach at the end of day (on his very first outing with WR Car)?

Yes you can, just try reading the F1 forum ;) :D

2 man rally again by the looks of it, this is getting boring.

Not yet but early days, Burkart will take a few stages to settle in.

No, one of them is going to make a mistake. Then the other will ease of and Petter will win

What help? There isn't anything what JM could have done to help Mikko...

What's up with bashing JML anyway? Manufacturers championship is over, nothing to lose in the personal championship too. Maximum push was the only real approach to this rally. Shame that it ended like this. I was so much hoping for a victory.

According to some Norwegian newspaper, Petter were offered a payed drive for Munchi's next year. Not confirmed anywhere else, so I doubt the whole story.

I would have liked Petter closer to the top in SS1, though.

Great start of the stage for Brynhildsen BTW...

Nothing serious so far!
2.9 is a very little distance...

OK two stages down and nothing has happened on the fight for the lead. Next one will be the hardest stage. Who wins that will win the day.

According to WRR, JML has suspension damage

I don't believe that story. My sourses in Argentina say that there will be no Munchi's team next year.

We know. 20 mins ago. Bad news with only a remote service after SS3.

No mistake for Latvala after all... Just a mechanical breakdown. Really frustrating.

"On one of first junctions I went off on brakes, driveshaft broken. Some brake pipes as well." Latest from Latvala.

Off road in a junction? Sounds like a driver error if you ask me.

It used to be only one man rally (Loeb winning all the time) so its not to bad.

Anyone with WRR that can give an update on weather? Advantage or disadvantage to be first on road?

Henning - "We had engine problems on first stage, lost lot of time. Setup is OK."

Nikara and Brynildsen starting fast.
Expected from Jarkko but not from Eyvind. Sandell in trouble? Or cautious start?

Not got WRR but would imagine it's neither, just a disadvantage to be further down the field and I would imagine the 2nd runs through will be a bit rutted.

Seb is faster again in early split...

Yes, I think he will push more on this one - probably able to put 5 more secs ahead?
