I think he is there because of Daniel Oliveira.

Unfortunately again the issue with stuck throttle came into the game...

I'm not sure it was the same problem as Meeke because the stuck throttle was caused by a screw that came stuck between the pedal..

Onboard from Snijers in Ypres superb commitment from a 53 year old driver.

Fantastic onboard. WRC take note of the angles ;)

I see on twitter that BTRDA drivers Steve Perez and Paul Bird have been invited by Mini to try the WRC car. Wonder if they will be hiring one for Rally GB or buying one for next season ;)

What Mini need is an equivalent for M-Sport Stobart, Mini has a lot of quite talented customers and it seems to be a shame that they have to waste their resources on Oliveria who probably did not collect much data for them in Australia. But this team should not be as full of Gimps and Gentlemen as the M-Sport Stobart operation.

Impressive, what series does Snijers compete in now?

How many stages did he complete all together? (regarding he "did not collect much data" in australia...)
