Ouch.

Penalty for Mikkelsen - one minute.

Is this the reason?

Mikkelsen Andreas - Fløene Ola

"We started one minute late because we didn't have the time on card. So I didn't have the right rhytm in this one."

Great split screen footage of heli and onboards from SS5.

Strong words from Lukyanuk.. Breen and Llarena are 'cheating' with the running order shennanigans.

Didn't he do the same in previous rallies?

[Tom K]

I do not remember anything similar from Luky. Never backed off on the quali if I am correct.

Heh. My mistake. Was rather searching through gravel events And the best strategy for Canarias was spying locals

Well this it deserves some explanation at some point. Who should decide the startime? I thought it's always the "starter" at start of the stage that confirms it (if there are delays or hold ups). Did the starters do nothing and expect the crews to start by themselves?
Also who should write the start time on the card? I thought it was the "starters" that do this?

Some confusion about Mikkelsen's penaly. ERC radio is saying organizers likely will take it back?
