Ogier is making massive difference on this one
Splits are getting really annoying, such an important stage to mess up, but looks like Ogier tyre management is making massive difference
latvalas car in the service, no bigger damage to see:

Mads fights back ... or maybe not ?! :rolleyes:
No times at all from Block and on...
Mads slowed at end of stage lost loads of time
as far as i got that right ogier is 13 sec faster then östberg.

Rally Guanajuato México cam3 on USTREAM: Rally Guanajuato México 2013. Racing
So having the prime position of his own choosing Mikko fails to win a stage so far. Despite 'mistakenly' using hard compounds in qualifying Ogier is 11.8 sec ahead of the nearest challenger Ostberg.
Only 6 of the Pickem entries have got the current 1-2-3 correct no one has the 4th place right which means JML has let a lot of people down and Neuville is exceeding most expectations
I think that 4 people are still in it for the win. On sunday there is a 54 km stage and like 2011 Ogier could have a comfortable lead but can still crash
Think I'll try being Seb-O in the Polo while we wait for next stages... :D

We got plenty of time til the end ;) So far I am quite pleased. I put Juan-Martin in 5th because I was sure he will crash early and then recover through superrally. Neuville will crash after half of the rally and wouldnt recover.Quote:

Well, someone has to finish the rally, who do you want to put in top 8 - Kosciusko, Block? :)Quote:

SS8 underway
SS8 running ;)
Ostberg losing more time to Ogier at first split
vw and seb looks too strong... wrc is going boring again.. another Seb domination.. next years.. hope not
Ogier supreme as expected! Surpise of Ostberg! Good result for him but I think It's too fast for him. I predict Ostberg to go off, if he tries to keep up with Ogier.
Neuville quite lot faster than Östberg :confused:
Neuville almost on Ogier's pace, hope that's Thierry's rhythm and not the rhythm of pushing for getting Hirvonen.
Let''s hope Hunday makes Monster fast Ultra car and forces Loeb behind the wheel - otherwise = Ogier= New KingQuote:

Honestly, people should just accept the situation as it is. I am not too happy about the possible VW/Ogier domination, but cudos to them - they did a better job with the whole package, and if they dominate Loeb/Citroën style now and in the future, good for them. If you can't see the sporting part of that, then nobody is forcing you to watch...Quote:

Citroen are giving up too early, Sordo is also very very slow
