    I think you'll find that Ingrassia was on his phone too...

    No-one has trust in Ogier anymore

    "Q:
    You had a throttle issue today, when did you discover that? Did you think it would spoil the party?
    SO:
    Actually it started yesterday night on the road section and I started to get a strange reaction on the throttle when I was lifting – the car was going on with 20 per cent of pedal. It was not so nice, especially on stage mode. It could be tricky, we tried to check everything we could – it looks like a sensor is a bit crazy. Luckily it was still working some times, but it can catch you by surprise, so it’s also dangerous. Finally, we managed some small fix, it was not 100 per cent but at least we could finish the rally and give a last push on the power stage to keep the win. It was another busy day for my heart! The win was difficult to reach but also I didn’t know if I would finish. The sensor could be gone and this would be a bigger drama and that also adds to the emotion.
    "

    But when Neuville says he doesn't trust Ogier, everyone believes Neuville. Neuville also said his puncture on last stage in Catalunya was from stone picked by Evans before him, oh well this was recorded on video at least he was just blaming someone else for his own mistake.

    Oh dear... if someone doesnt like one, then that someone dont hear or cant read even...

    Ogier didnt say that pedal was going like 20% allways.... it did happen and he was concerned that same problem could happen again and in maximum attack mode that wont be nice.

    Simple.

He opened his hood and his co-driver (wife I think) spilled some water on the manifold... the leading drivers who was behind them at the time control saw the steam and Stig told them they have a leaky head gasket... Stig ended up winning that stage by 16 secs.. lol. Old trick by and old wise man... he was in his 60's.

    What season did Stig do which whole season...Whole NASA season? Whole Wawwy Amewica season? Duh Knees whole season?

    05 season Wawwy Amewica? ...Hmmmmm

    Ogier alleged bluff is apparently making people to forget the most important aspect of last day fight: Citroen’s 100th…(kidding). Actually, Neuville wasn’t able to fight till PS last km as he cooked his tyres on the second Turini pass. Like it was said endless times before: it’s not only about being the fastest, it’s mainly about being the most regular.

    Sometimes people forget that the definition of truth is not what they believe in

    In a story like this there is always enough people to believe they are right even when there is no way on Earth how to prove that. I think that it's not bad sometimes to say "I don't know" and move on.

    Well said. If Neuville didn't comment it, probably no one would.

    He ended up leaving the season early.... He was rallying under Sutton Cars. It looks like he did only 6 events.
