I dont know who's the idiot that though this year running order was a good idea, but the guy should be nailed to tommorow's front runner car bumper and use as a sweeper!

Hmmm, I have to admit I didn't expect Loeb to play tactics, but still don't mind the outcome so far. There is great amount of risk involved in this kind of games, and nothing can be certan. I hope JML takes that one and make everyone think about it in the future.

That's pure naivety to think Ford forced Citroen to do tactics. Citroen is shrewd winning team and they of course uses tactics when beneficial. At least if Loeb and Citroen had the position of Ford drivers (=underdogs) they would certainly use everything possible tactic. We know that Loeb even had unofficial crew from Citroen to searching stages in Finland few years ago. Citroen is far from sentimental "soft-boys-team".

Exactly right Finni - you dont become the best team in rallying without having a ruthless streak!

These rules have this year and in previous years made for some of the worst rallying ever. People will point to the margins the rallies are won by but it's all so artificial and carefully orchestrated that unless you're one of these people who just supports a team or a driver it's boring from a sporting point of view. It's not even clever..... F1 pit strategies can be clever but telling your drivers to fall back behind the leader so they get a better road position? Any 5 year old could work that one out.Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.
still 3rd after penalty
