Is this just looking at current standings? As looking at the championship, if it there isn't much movement in positions, it is likely that Ostberg will drop a couple of places, so that the new 4th will have won a rally.

@AL14, which standing are You looking at?

Paddon always slow at ss,but now even r5 cars faster than him.
Whats on Lunda?

He said he got mud sprayed over his windscreen by the other car and couldn't see, that probably didn't help...

Still a lot of time to lose on an sss though.

We are working quite a lot on Super Specials, and as you can see on the first running the deficit was 1.1 sec compared ti I think 3.4 last year.
But both runs after he has been given the "wrong" lane to start from, and then you get grael thrown on the windscreen two-three times during the laps, so a little added difficulty. But progression is being made, as you can see when you compare to Poland last year.

Everything? What was the "shoot-out" story?

He was trying to find the limit of stupidities in their offers...

That's fine, but I was asking if they are so powerful why it wasn't accepted?

Latvala seems to be past his best these days. Behind Mikelssen in the championship, slower here on an event you would think would suit him..

Having said that, he will probably now go and win in Finland.

Is he contracted for next year?

So what will the weather do to the road order today? Looking at the start order Ogier might benefit from being so much further up the order compared to the top 3, assuming the wet does make being further up the order better?

Like I wrote, they were trying to find the limit of stupidities in their offers. It was not so good idea also for them to push more for it. It was only attempt. If they really want to push through, they do it...
