WoW! this is going to be mad. unless Ogier not taking in 5 mins on an lunetic drive two days ahead...?
Well, Rallyper, I did not expect him to go off, I excpected him to destroy a rim or something, but I did expect him to react to the pressure.

I think this is what happened:
Ogier tried VERY hard on the first SS to "kill" the battle at once, but JML clung on.
Then he continoued to try very hard to create a gap, taking VERY big chances like the cut we saw in SS1. But still no big gap.
Then he pushes even more - not contempt on being second, or even in a battle for first, he wants to lead big time - and it bites him.
The trend since Helsinki Battle, Rally Finland and now is qiute obvious, over driving.
The spiral I wrote about earlier.
But I, and I guess most of You, am still in schock!

(But i register that my predictions regarding speed have been quit correct)
