No no no... you have to aim higher than that. I tried to make Paasonen a champion. Somebody even tried Loix ;)

According to BFG Latvala made the same as Timo Mäkinen in Ouninpohja decades ago. Drove to the finish with bonnet open!

Sordo has been doing better since SS2.
He is fighting with Petter and Atkinson :up:

Is Hirvonen faster than Marcus today? Impressive!

Loeb rhythm has been perfect so far. :up:

Just got a message from my brother who's there for Dutch television. It's raining incredibly hard. He has never seen something like that before. It's raining harder than the water comes out of our shower.. :D

Brave men take the spoils in such conditions... Reminds me of Gardemeister on final televised stage of 1999 Rally Finland...

As it is at the moment, Subaru has claimed back the 3rd place in the Manu championship by 1 point. Should they finish equal on points, Subaru will still be 3rd overall due the the second place scored in Portugal.

Same feelings, I have "warm" and snowy memoirs from 1971 RAC when some stages were cancelled due to snow. Unfortunately I had to retire because bent wheels as the service crew was stuck in snow.

Very good time from Ostberg - 7th fastest!

Resolven is a horrible stage if the weather is bad, lots of open moorland across the top of the hill....

Fantastic time for Wilks - takes half a minute off Higgins. Evans also very quick in the other 'works' Mitsi....

Are the WRC drivers from the Netherlands driving with tarmac suspension and tyres? How slow can you be with a WRC?

True, Wilks deserves a contract with Suzuki for next year. He is one of the most promising drivers.

If I was him, I should drive with a private Focus WRC next year. That is much better than that slow and crap Suzuki.
