Oliver is still making it through the stage, incredibly slowly.

Must be nursing a problem at that pace.

Ok so just for curiositys sake.

You have a problem with the car and the stage gets red flagged. You limp it through and gets a notional time.

Can the stewards award you a different time to everyone else who drove through the stage because they judge that you would have lost time compared to everyone else or is there a rule saying everyone gets the same time regardless?

Shiieeet. Hope for a speedy recovery without complications.

11 WRC cars started the event, in first 4 stages:
* 3 retired (Evans, Sordo, Bertelli)
* 2 nursing (Ogier, Solberg) + Tänak?

... and now comes 2nd pass for the same loop.

Evans retirement was clearly his fault.
Solberg also did hit he bank as he said. So much that the collision warning started flashing.

Ogier had 2 moments, might have been the damage started on one of them.
Sordo is a bit unclear atm, maybe broke steering before the crash.

I mean compare it with Sardinia where all kind of cars started breaking by themselves immediatelly (Rovanpera, Greensmith, Loubet).

2nd pass will be much rougher though.

Each driver can have own time.
Usually 1st and 2nd passing times are compared

Watched the Sordo onboard and it looks there was a big rock in the middle of the road just before the crash

Just read an update saying Solberg retires from roll cage damage which is surprising to me.

The suspension is hanging from the car, but how the roll cage is damaged is a mystery to me.

That's definitely rally rally over.
