    Team-orders - Hirvonen/Bosse?

    Do you think Hirvonen will ease a little bit on the gas to help Bosse get an extra gap to Loeb in the championship standings? Do you think he should do it? Do you think Wilson would like to "help" Bosse in this way?

    It is probably not the last time of the season that we will see a situation of the kind which is developing right now, and considering the even pace Bosse and Loeb from time to time puts up, those two points may be cruical for Bosses carreer.

    how could hirvonen possilby ease back enough to be between marcus and seb? i think no... go for it. better 1,2 than 1,3 or even 2,3 if not judged right.

    if it is still a relevant question at the last service on sunday afternoon, i'm sure he will be told to ease off then.

    while loeb is around and his car is fit and fast, i doubt he'll be told to do anything except what he is doing.

    The way the situation is now No way !! Its too risky...but if Gronholm pulls a safe lead from Loeb abd Hirvonen is still 1st then yes.

    If things mantain this way, they probably let the boy fight for the victroy, but if Loeb overtakes him... probably they sent him to the 3rd place. Bosse e boss I want to see Hirvonen fighting for the victory, is fair.

    Hirvonen is ahead of Marcus because of road position. Marcus won't need any team order to overtake him after the 2 first stages of tomorrow morning.

    Mikko is doing a great job though.

    Hirvonen has to show what he's got!

    Why do you say different ?
    There is a lot of snow. Loeb and Marcus are struggling because of that. Hirvonen is third on the road and it's an advantage.
