    But anyway this "if" scenario is always tricky. Ostberg didn't need to push after Gryazin lost time with the power steering and by pure speed Gryazin was likely the fastest. In the end what matters is the result in finish.

    Our first mistake of the weekend, no matter how small, forces us to retire for today
    Disappointed face
    The car has nothing but we couldn't get out of the ditch. We will analyze with the team what could have happened because at the moment I do not understand ... #WRC

    That was a pretty high speed off. The fact that the car was not damaged is nothing but luck.

    That it looked weird I agree.

    There was lots of bushes and undergrowth where he landed and they probably cushioned the blow. I could see a bit of body panel sticking up so it wasn't completely unharmed.

    There was a dark patch on the asphalt where he went off. I was thinking gravel or oil or something like that.

    But there is realistically no way for M-Sport to beat Hyundai or Toyota in the manufacturer championship regardless. So they will be third there no matter who they have in their car...

    You mean when they ran outside of SWRC as they used some parts as a test-thing for the VW entry the next year.

    Was it not the section where the commentators thought he ran wide and almost off on the first run through the stage? It looked quite familiar, it might just be that he was a bit too eager there.

    to my surprise, Ogier said in the media zone that he had 3 punctures today?

    Looked pretty pissed off and said that already in Monte he said to Pirelli or team? something has to be done

    Well fortunately for him he's retiring this year, as for the other crews, they have until 2024(?) and only then maybe they'll have a chance to go back to Michelin (assuming we'll still have a championship).
