what happened is no different than when drivers stopped before the stage end to have a better position for the next day or when burns faked a flat tyre and delayed to start the stage in australia....
we can cry like little sick dogs depending on which driver we support or we can accept it...
we can also follow the auti... (oooops FBI warning)... i mean the british method and stir up the subject every now and then to satisfy our mental disabilities...Last edited by N.O.T; 15th March 2018 at 18:23.

This whole issue could have started and ended in Sweden.
If the other Teams had accepted that Ogier/M-Sport's action was a one-off due to their desperation to get some points on a rally where they were basically denied through no fault of their own.
The FIA even asked everyone not to behave like this on the Mexico PS.
But no, Hyundai and Toyota had to act like children in Mexico saying, well if they did it we're going to do it. Even though the rally and circumstances were totally different.#M-SPORTER

So by your statement it is OK that when Ogier who happens to be the lead driver of the team you support is in a desperation to get points, but when competition is trying to exploit this loophole in a desperation for more points they act like children. Really?? I'm starting to believe N.O.T.'s british autism jokes more and more. What a load of BS

This is just embarrassing Eddie sorry.
Why should M-Sport be able to get away with something that clearly works and others told they can't do it?
The first line of your post is bang on though. The issue should have started in Sweden with the FIA doing their jobs.
Story in MN yesterday said the WRC Promoter put forward a proposal after Sweden but the FIA didn't act on it. They will discuss it at the next WRC Commission meeting in May! I guess there are a few layers of their own red tape to get through - but I reckon that means we'll have this all again in Argentina next month. Maybe even Portugal if the FIA continue to sit on their hands.
Guarantee you if this was F1 it would have been sorted within a week.RS Motorsport Media - Follow me on Instagram: rsmotorsportmedia
