Things like this has happened before. In WRC too, with Ogier on a punkture before red flag.
It is all about what you can or have proof of.
1. Franceschi is or have been overtaken by the car that started behind him, before red flag. With proof.
2. The proof is has been overtaken, nut he could be going one behind him. That make the minute.
3. Now proof of Llaren have a punkture before red flag.
When he saw the red flag, he new the chapionship was over, he maybe lost his conesentration and then got the punkture. WHAT DO WE NOW.
My humble opinoin.
You can not call that stolen, you do not now enough.

Furuseth 3 time. First year the car let him down on the last stage the first day. I think he would have been in the lead.
Second year the car let him down on the first stage the first day, and one the first stage the second day.
So he has newer don the sunday stages, and this year some saturday stages was different from two years ago.
So to say he has big exsperience from this rally is an overstatement.
But I do agree, Francechi was very impressiv, Llarena and Cais too.

He was in a very good mood. He said he was happy especially about Sunday. He said he had to learn the car a bit during Friday and Saturday and that the car is still very new and that he was confident it would be definitely faster next year when more experience with suspension setup is gained. Nevertheless he praised the team of his brother-in-law that everything worked perfect. The reporter asked him (jokingly) if he could get on the podium if there was another leg. He said something like "hard to say, we could also end in the forest" At the end he was asked if he would bring the current Fiesta WRC to Rally Vsetín as he promised after Kopná and he said he would if the car is free (due to date collision with Catalunya).

I also think that it's perfectly ok to discuss the matter here on the forum. It could look easy to recover the car but honestly I am not so suicidal to do that myself in that place and I don't think that slowing the others down because of the car which doesn't block the road is a good idea either.

Just for info. This photo is taken in village Vlčková roughly 4 km before the place where Vlček crashed and 5,5 km before the stage finish (i.e. around 20 km from the start). If I am not mistaken six cars started to the stage between Vlček and Llarena. It's possible that by that time the stage was already red flagged for him.

Manuel Avino (RFEA President) is far from being a John Doe; he’s a titular member of the WMSC, FIA’s most important motorsport ruling body.
Let’s be clear: a last minute complaint is always a stressful issue for an organizer to judge, especially when it evolves a title result. I’m not saying the organizer decision was wrong or unfair but it’s more than obvious that it was quite useful for Llarena to have RFEA top officials directly supporting him in this situation.
Anyway, both Llarena and Torn deserve to be praised for their brave efforts through the whole season and hopefully they’ll have a bright future in the sport. Fingers crossed for them.Rally addict since 1982
First leg he will be thinking in Portuguese championship. Then he can go for WRC2.
