    Great for Lappi, really pleased for him. I always like to see the underdog do well and we had Fourmaux up there as well, unexpectedly I would say.

    The points thing is a bit of mess, I understand...

    To be fair he was also really lucky to miss Tanak on Friday when Tanak was nearly stopped on the exit of a fast corner after his crash.

    He said in the interview at the end he thought that Munster was off in the corner before so I presume he assumed Munster had got the car out and then realised too late that he was still in the bank...

    Even my wife who doesn’t really pay any attention to rally, watched the footage from tonight and said it was really cool with the night stage in the snow.

    But would you replace him with Suninen on Tarmac where Mikkelsen is mainly being used? I wouldn’t.

    Of course, I completely agree that there is always the possibility of the upside as well as the downside.

    Almost zero chance I would think. Rossi is a BMW factory driver in the WEC and GTWCE currently, so putting all his energies into that.

    Yes, and I don’t recall ever feeling that they weren’t quick enough or noisy enough when I went to watch them. Just having them rev higher than the previous 2l cars made them sound ok.

    The 3 lads at the top of WRC2 have been mega, flat out the whole rally pretty much and only a few seconds in it. They are 4 minutes ahead of the rest.

    So far Fourmaux is doing exactly what they would have asked of him. He’s clearly giving everything a margin, not pushing hard and is beating Mikkelsen and Katsuta.

    It looked like one of the marshals hurt himself falling over on the ice. The camera looking out of the front of Taka’s car caught him fall over.
