Mikkelsen says he is out with engine problems.
That is not often the Skoda engine gives in.

Its the same car/engine with who Bulacia drove in Spain?

[Mirek]

From the description it may not be an engine problem but a throttle one. We'll see, maybe they can fix it.

By the way Pajari and Franceschi were faster than Torn on SS2.

A wire problem for Mikkelsen, so nothing is lost yet. Needs to get through one stage and then the service.

[Mirek]

Marczyk just overshot a junction on a helicam. He said he had only FWD. Gryazin was off in high speed. Turán spun. Ostberg very vocal about spectators in very dangerous places. Double puncture for Scandola. Engine issues for Cais. Csomós spun.

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Cais & Hadik going well in the Fiesta's this morning, both in the Top 4. Cais having a small car problem but still closest to Gryazin.

Ostberg is such a complain machine. When his car works, then he finds and complains about spectators (says someone is going to be killed, FIA need to cancel the stage?). No other driver even mentions any problems with spectators.

Sorry but that's nonsene what you just wrote.

First of all the crowds in that crazy dangerous place were clearly visible on the streamed footage. Second there were several other drivers complaining, including locals Herzig (who directly adressed the spectators directly in both English and Hungarian asking them to behave carefully), Turán and one another whom I don't remember.

The stage was later stopped and ambulance passed it. I don't know if it was related to some accident with spectators. I hope not.

[Walach]

I am the last one who would normally defend Ostberg, but there were a plenty of spectators standing in highly risky places at the TV stage alone.
Herczig also asked the spectators to behave responsibly in his end of stage interview.
