    I agree that it was dull to watch, but I also try to understand why they chose to do it like this.
    I think most of the people watching it are rally fans. And I think that also "regulars" will understand that stage end interview in small box is different car than running on big screen. And I am sure that also this regulars will prefer to see the cars running on stage than only watching drivers staying on start/finish line.

    Well, I know people who tune in if there's rallying on TV but don't follow the results or news other than maybe once a day. They don't know all the drivers by name etc.

    And about the picture in picture interview, I think it's still better television if there's full size interview, although as a rally fan I'd rather see more driving footage.

    That talk about Ogier saving points rather than winning isn´t what has been written here on forum for the past ten years. Because he is not saving anything. His speed isn´t there. It´s as simple as that.

    Ogier want to win every time. Now his pace just isn´t enough. Car, tyre choice or just driver. We don´t know.

    Wouldn´t surprise me at all if he wins PS...

    Seems a strange decision.

    For this reason 'not saving anything' Ogier got 6 WDC. Meeke and JML that really pushing and crashing have how much on both? 0? Haha.. Really not working strategy for Ogier

    I also dont understand. Maybe there is remote refuel which should be an issue in case of using alternative road?
