Well, if the stewards had acted quick and given Neuville a penalty before the power stage started, I guess Ogier would have taken it easier. So in that way it was not fair.
Regarding that chicane and how it should be built, I don't think it should have been there at all. It was not even necessary for the stage average speed being too high.

Loeb also moved the barrier(only on the exit though) on the power stage and didn't get penalty and scored one point.

Thats what I mean... driver's take every cut and advantage they can, those crappy barriers were asking to be clipped.

Theese chicanes are used to slow cars down on the entry to villages or cities, due to improve safety of spectators or citizens just accidentaly passing by. If there was not the chicane, cars would be entering next right corner about 40kph faster, (i guess) and there was a lot of spectators on the outside on the finish straight.

I still do not understand why they insist on this kind of "special".

In Ogiers case it was WDC points to fight for. And Ogier gained many tenths of a second doing what he did. So justice were conducted. No fiver for him. That´s fair.

Yesterday Chris Ingram posted he was doing a shakedown of the Polo R5 so it seems he's continuing in that car for the Jim Clark. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C7OEfYKoYV1/?igsh=czZzYzB1dm9zeHd4 ...
