    The dream:

    "Both Ole Christian Veiby and his Polo are now ready for another WRC gravel event. – The car has been rebuilt completely and we are fully prepared as ever and ready for Rally Italia Sardegna"
    "The car has been through quite a detailed examination and rebuild, and is now ready for action again."
    "We are giving it all again for this one and going for victory!"
    (source: https://ocveiby.com/veiby-vie-for-victory-in-sardinia/)

    The reality:

    Veiby broke the rear suspension after the jump and retired after SS 1.

    Veiby reached stage finish, you can´t do that without rear axel...

    Suspension damage is different problem.

    He stopped again on SS2, but I don't know what happened. Now it seems he still continues the rally...

    This time it was just a puncture:
    Veiby - "We had a slow puncture, stopped to change the wheel. Lost 54 seconds to fastest."
