Mixed bag of a rally, for my tastes.

On the plus side, it was "tough" which made it different and interesting. I wouldn't want every rally like this, but one is good.

On the minus side, there was a quiet tide of road cleaning under all the "tough rally" stuff, which made it too dominated by running order (like Sardinia which I would like to drop).

Obligatory Meeke fan comment: I wish he'd beaten Latvala, but it was an OK-ish result under the circumstances.

Lappi and Mikkelsen continued to look like they will keep their jobs, which wasn't so clear half a season ago.
