    One more stage to go and Lappi will have the win in his pocket.

    I'm sorry to say that, but this sport doesn't make sense anymore. You pay 50 000 E for a rally and those super expensive technically sophisticated hyper cars from space break down as if they were some toys for a 3-year old kids!

    I'm watching a football match of my local team (Lechia Gdansk against Slask Wroclaw) at the same time and sorry, but it makes much more fun. Following Rallye du Valais is more like waiting which car breakes down next. FIA has turned this sport into a parody

    Tactically a perfect race for him, I hope it will last until the finish line.

    The cars of today are way more reliable than those of the past (except the 208 T16 of course )...

    There are some very nice videos on the ERC website. Here a jumping compilation from the famous jump

    This one of Breen with his two spins is a must watch! I just love these stages!

    What about the massively complex, super-fast Group B cars that regularly completed 45 stages, 1000+ road miles over 5 days ... 30 years ago ?!

    I dont see the progress in reliability.

    They had service after every stage...

    They were not so complex. By the standards of today they were quite primitive

    Consani never has any luck. He needs to buy a SKODA for 2015.

    Breen: "...Without the puncture I think we would have won. A great drive by Esapekka (Lappi). This has been good for the moment."

    Quite a bold statement.
