    Should be the first time in ages 3 manufacturers have a title chance at the final event.
    Actually it's 306 for M-Sport, but not much difference anyway, probably they won't take the title.

    A driver to commend from this rally is Evans for me. He was a little off the pace the last two days but he put in a good PS and finally got himself a podium. I don't see much hope for him next year but at least he's got a silver lining to hold onto.

    Wow, what a championship and what an event.

    RC1, RC2 and RC4 all with a tiny gap between them after 3+ hours of SSs.

    Neuville looked absolutely gutted at the end, but honestly I think it's probably better to be a point behind than a point ahead with Australia next up.

    No point in people arguing about which car is best at this or that and which driver is best; it's a team game and they're all combinations and no-one being the perfect combination is what has made this year thrilling. Title wise, this is the same feeling I had watching rallying in the 90s where the titles often came down to two or three drivers at the last round; can't wait for Australia.

    Great drive by Evans too, these last two events make me think he should get another year if M Sport can afford him over a paying driver. If not, get him in that new R5 and go Skoda-hunting.

    Really happy in my decision to go out to Spain to watch Loeb; originally thought it may be his last event but I'm sure now with no WRX drive he'll be thinking about it next year. Or give him some R5/ERC events to show off that car. Was a pleasure to watch and I was getting very misty-eyed on the edge of my seat watching the end there. For sure I hope he has some more rallying in him.

    Shout out to some lower-order drivers who looked quick when I saw them on certain stages; Huttenen seems to have been quick on Friday in parts, Franceschi I've not heard of but looked really fast when I saw him, both Solans' especially Nils whose speed on Saturday was astounding, Camilli who was a great advert for the VW (anyone know why he retired? VW mechanics wouldn't tell me; the airbox was cracked but no other sign of damage) and of course to Rovanpera for willing on tarmac against Kopecky and by dominating his class relative to the winning margins in the other two!

    Ramble over.

    Oh, and honourable mention to Fabio Andolfi, just because he drives like an absolute nutjob and he hit some piece of scenery every time he's passed me in Wales and Spain.

    what are your plans for today ? have the anti depressants kicked in yet after seeing THE GREATEST DRIVER OF ALL TIMES TAKING A HUGE SHIT IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY THAT ONE OF THE USELESS DOGS WILL LIFT IN AUSTRALIA ?
    If he hadn’t played pick and choose perhaps I’d be more impressed - wasn’t exactly a return to the days of true dominance though, now was it?
    Kris Meeke got fired -PSG so terrified they quit!

    Consiprationist theories on DS3-Loeb and Ogier are beautiful. This forum never end to amaze me lol.

    Neuville-Tanak parallelism is interesting but we have a lot of differences: Tanak didn't make Neuville's silly mistakes of last year but on the other hand it is true that Tanak has a part of fault on the problems he has had this year and it wasn't only mechanical issues and bad luck.
