    Congratulations to Ogier, ending his career in a very typical fashion, driving at his pace that is comfortable for him but uncomfortable for others, taking what he can when he's not the fastest and profiting when he is. Some would say he is the luckiest man alive... lucky he doesn't go off at dangerous places, lucky he doesn't get punctures, lucky he doesn't hit rocks, lucky others make mistakes, lucky his car didn't break down, lucky he has the right tyres and the list goes on, have heard it all many times over the years. I say maybe the man knows something more than the others I was never a big fan but must admit he is a great champion, one of the greatest of all time.

    Anyone who has followed rallying, knows it is not over until it is over.

    Nothing to wait in the last stage except mechanical failure and the Rossel / Kajto fight where they will be all-in (but think it will be hard for Rossel considering what happens on the circuit so far)
    Disappointing performance by Katsuta, a top-5 was a minimum-goal with the circuit part but a lot of mistakes from him this weekend.
    Strange rally for Rovanpera... not really enjoyable I think

    Ogier would give a 200th (driver) French win in WRC with this one, a good way to finish his «*regular*» career (Loeb did the 100th)

    First stage watching this weekend. Kalle is just doing donuts and drifts for the spectators as far as I can see.

    Didn't Taka hit the concret with the right side yet the damage was on the left? Was there an incident before that allready?

    Evans thanks Kalle for sacrificing this weekend for the team. Sportmanship.
