    That would effectively kill their efforts in the manufacturers champ... no it wouldn't. I'm being an idiot because Paddon is in the N team. Disregard what I said! He's so good these days you forget that he is in the secondary team.

    This was a rally for guys in support teams if you think about it. Mikkelsen, Paddon did well, Tidemand.

    I would love to see the telemetry on Nuvelle's car, what's the bet that the half shaft failed while he was trying to regain the road. In my experience they do not break under braking. He did go off nose first, it was not as though he was trying to save an overshoot. Sounds a bit like BS to this kid.

    Typical mental game before the stage. This time Ogier lost it

    And Duval, Ostberg, Sordo... All ended up stuck in the middle if not fat.

    My few conclusions after the rally:

    - Ogier is yet a human altough his concetration may not have been too high
    - Mikkelsen finally got his win, altough it took him 64 WRC events
    - Latvala having 155 WRC starts still needs to change "mental approach" every few events
    - Evans is not in form and podium in Corsica was rather lucky
    - Neuville is so not in form I can't even describe it
    - Kubica should get a seat in works team (at least for 7-8 rallies)
    - Tanak needs to improve a lot on tarmac
    - Sordo, Meeke and Ostberg did good 'team-scoring-oriented' rally
