Sordo with 5 minute penalty start in Sweden.
According to AS-magazine, Sordo engine has to be chaged after Monte retirement. Therefore Sordo has 5 minute time penalty before the start.

Not a happy year -08
However, Sordo hardly was a winning favourite in Sweden but now the road is desperately rocky for a good position. And Ford celebrates.

Why didn't they retire him from Monte, then he woulden't have got the penalty, right?

Well if you remember how incredibly poor he was last year in the snow, these 5 minutes won't make a difference. What I can't understand is why they don't nominate another driver for this rally.

For some reason Sordo seems to get all of the mechanical problems for Citroen.

The engine was crashed all ready. Can they change a new engine for Sweden if it was broken allready without penalty?
Like gardemeiste/Suzuki did. Not yet broken, but quit him, for better result in Sweden
Don't forget: Sordo helps Citroen in Monte at 1 point. He do that not in Sweden.

Did Loeb get a super C4 and Sordo the normal C4, because Loeb somehow almost never has problems with his car.
In anticipation of the next corner...
