Basically they said that small roads are better than chicanes, but they feel the fast wide roads are safer to drive

Ogier was a bit more explicit on the chicanes: “Anything artificial on the stage is shit for me”. He backed the new roads: “A lot of the new sections were nice and challenging but when you go wider and wider it’s just super quick and it makes a high level of risks and danger”.

I'm not 100% sure what he means with "wider and wider". The wider roads or just cutting and "widening" a narrow road and thus making it super quick and dangerous?

From the full quote it makes sense to believe he was comparing the new narrow stages with the previous wider ones.

It’s not really like that, the stages have always been a mix of wide and narrow, fast and slow.

Stupid forum software on smartphones....

I hope my post is visible now: if it's true, they will drop Paddon as Seb Marshall is gone today to Toyota.

So, Sordo 10 rounds, rest Loeb?

If it’s true, Clark is silly season wild guessing winner!

Ogier actually used the word sections and not stages, like I’ve wrote. Anyway, in the full article it’s clearly said he backed the new roads, even if that specific quote sounds a bit confusing.

If Loeb joins Hyundai is the "death" of Neuville's Hyundai carreer.

Mikkelsen more likely. Loeb coming in and dominating him would compound his misery next year. Neuville has security and the whole team behind him.
