I think Quesnel meant the drivers were equal before the season started... and he proved that was true by letting this fight happen. Now that Loeb (presumably) has a big lead in the championship, it'd be illogical to not label him the no1 driver, unless he crashes out of a future rally and the points become even again.

That said, should Ogier disregard team orders, there's not much Quesnel can really do about it. He needs Ogier for the manu championship because there's nobody else that can beat the Fords, except for Petter- and Petter certainly won't listen to team orders. But in the long term it'd probably be an unwise career move.

This year the difference in the cars is very big so i think we will have no team orders to define positions only to sustain current positions

Fair enough.... What happens, we'll see by the end of the season.

or to company Ogier..can t understant the reason,don t want to save tyres for power stage? wtf

Well, it is already third time to pass that stage. It might look like tarmac already, so maybe Ford wants to know if worn tires are better for such a stage? or maybe Wilson told him to drive safe (to make sure at least one Ford is on the podium) on powerstage and quarantee 21 points and healthy championship lead to Mikko.

Petters time???
