Ingram: "stopped in stage, continu"

In case this BMW was overspeeding, I think it's not Ogier's fault. In the moment he started line-change, it was clear road behind him on that line.

Really? Just because you are in a rally car that doesn’t mean road rules don’t apply. You are supposed to use blinkers and make sure the other lane is clear before doing that.

I completely agree, I don't think it's Ogier's fault. Overtaking from the right (and this isn't UK-Australia,South Africa, Cyprus roads), don't know what that BMW was thinking but it denied Ogier any chance of taking the victory here.

Of course. And BMW wasn't speeding, that was wide multilane avenue, not some small two way road.

I don’t agree at all.

Definitely Ogiers fault in my eyes

Overtaking from the right is allowed in city driving in most countries (here for sure). It's not even called overtaking.

The other guy didn't drive 50 km/h, that's quite sure. Still Ogier's mistake.

road rules have a point that all drivers are stick to the rules and other will expect that. So if it clear to 50kph road- it's ok.

Think it's pointless to point fingers at anyone in that accident as both sides played a role that in the end caused the accident.

Ok, I didn't know that, here it's illegal to overtake from the right no matter if you're inside the city or outside. I accept that he didn't over-speed but he still did try to go faster than Ogier; Also we shouldn't forget, with all that Aero, Ogier has a lot of blind spots. The only thing Ogier did wrong was not indicating with his indicators. In any case, when you see a rally car on the road, you don't try to outmaneuver it. Not the first time this happens (probably isn't the last as well), reminds of before shakedown(?) back in Sweden 2005 with Petter Solberg.
