Basso is only fourth today but Ucci is third. Only two stages to go . If they will remain like this Basso will be champion! Very difficult situation for Ucci

Scandola had a puncture.

Basso still leads after SS9, but Andreucci is only 5 seconds behind him. Two stages to go!

Jarek, you know damm well that if two top drivers are fighting against and one has Fiesta evo and other P208, the second one is without a chance.
Probbably you don't that Basso spun on the morning stage and than just control the gap to Ucci(read the interviews....).
Ucci can not fight even against GAS-powerd Fiesta (Cempedelli), the only luck is that Simone makes mistakes (yesterday broke the rim). same goes for Scandola....
But, this doesn't efect perfect drive of Basso, whos second half of the season was brilliant. Congrats....

Obviously he had a chance when he nearly won the title. You could say he was without a chance if he was 20 points behind but not 2.
