    Yes, in this particular case but it's not only Ogier who was stopped by the red flag. And for the other who had no punctures (in this case Latvala but it can be whoever next time) You can not know what would they achieve in the canceled part of the stage and that's why it's very tricky to allocate any notional time. All options are unfair in a way.

    I think that in this case it was really stupid to use the red flag in the moment when they did it (there was no immediate danger). Had they did it after Latvala they could have given everybody else the same notional time and it would be fair and square to everyone.

    What is this talk in some places, that it Was Lappi pushing the red button, after Ogier getting a puncture.

    Some vivid fantasies?
