    far too risky because they will need him if something happens to ogier and drops behind neuville... plus they would give toyota the chance to drop everyone so tanak has more chances at winning the title.

    only hope for the potato is if the predictions for rain come true.

    Neuville lost time at the end of the last stage before road positions were decided. By the time it was known Paddon was already in stage. So it was not physically possible. But I doubt they would have done it even if they could.

    Just finished re-watching the action. A few questions
    - Why wasn't Neuville penalised for going straight in the chicane? He should have reversed and gone from the right of the last bale, not left like he did. Or was it because there was no time gain in going straight?
    - Will M-Sport order Serderidis to take a time penalty to drop behind Neuville in road order tomorrow?

    you have to gain an advantage to get a penalty at chicanes

    the lines serderidis takes are different from those of the wrc drivers, so o need.

    I think he still got some advantage to go straight after restarting the car instead of having to reverse and go around the bale.
