There could not be any SSS penalties because there was not even any SSS in the rally (except one street stage I believe but the penalties were not from that one).
Neither Dinkel nor Griebel got the penalty on SSS. Both got them on normal proper stage (onboard of that stage from 2012: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3E7BSI9KPxk ).
I don't know how it is in Germany but we have very clear rules regarding chicanes and everybody knows them. The chicanes have standard shape and also are not made of paper. To get 30 seconds penalty here in CZ You need to brake straight through (here). For moving one component of the chicane from it's base (painted on the road) You get 5 seconds. Last but not least the chicanes are not there for fun but to slow down the cars in places where there is high risk of dangerous accident or of a damage caused to the third party (typically entrances to the villages and passes through them).Last edited by Mirek; 27th May 2018 at 22:38.

Toyota have gone 1-2-3-4-5 on Stage 14. If there was ever a hint on the performance gap between the two manufacturers, this is it.
