As the football chant goes: "Sing when they're winning, they only sing when they're winning!"
Even though I'm francophile and admire Ogier, I really want JML to get WDC - very tall order still as two 3rd places is enough for Seb now

He tries, sometimes too hard like today, but an exciting driver too watch.

Congrats to Jari-Matti and Miikka!

But what a crappy organization, no final stage stop control celebrations... Instead a small drive to a little podium with people behind barriers placed quite far away.

FINALLY. Kevin's 208 finishes a rally.

Some of the spectator areas also seemed to be quite some distance from the road.

How many of you wrote this about Petter Solberg too ??? Therefore, everybody still follow the WRC with a kind of interest

What to say (I still did not get over from the retirement of RK, this is huge disappointment for me...)....congrats for first tarmac victory for JML & M.Anttila. They have been waiting for long long time! Same goes for young Norvegian driver, second place is (almost) a victory for him. Meeke-we all are well accustomed for his podium results. Nice; the seat with Citroën should be 100% sure for next season. Sordo-I think he is not happy; he knows that he is capable on tarmac for much more, ''just'' fourth place at the end (and be fair beaten by disabled driver) is not the way he wants to end tarmac rallies....Mikko-he is history, sorry....Evans-again very good performance. Neuville-definitely one of the biggest losers (if not THE biggest) this weekend.....
Few places lower in the final classification: Abbring, the name which should be in minds of big bosses when they will put together teams for next year (Malcom!!). And 208 R5 survived three day of punishment, yeah....
At the end-who was the fastest naturally aspirated car and driven on one axle??? Porsche 911 GT3 RGT !! Nobody did not even think that 911 will be faster than R3 class, but both 911's are space shuttles for R3 class. Sometimes even faster than ''racing laboratory on four wheels'' -R5 cars....
Roll on to Spain.....and to another oppurtunity for RK....this one should suit him best.....the closest tarmac event to F1 circuit racing.
