also, with updated resutlts - 10th place from rally was Prokop and he lost 38min.

Didn't change anything but Solberg got 2min penalty for using 1 tyre too much.

I worded that badly sorry, I meant rookie mistake in getting caught. I'm sure any driver of his experience would be fully aware of the rules and what they were doing.
My question was intended to be more focussd on if people thought this might be more common than we think (by Neuville or other drivers) or actually just a once off?

Yes it’s more common. The rookie mistake was getting caught.

The thing is that there are rocks everywhere on the stages. Some we came across I suspect were put there by spectators.
There was some info the organisers gave about particularly rough parts, but it’s impossible to do it for whole stages.

A lot of the Safari is driving to what you see as so many things can/have changed since recce.

Without knowing, but referring to almost 60 years of following the sport of rallying, I´d say yes. So much rumours on lower levels and also from stories telled by people involved in international rallying decades ago, says to me this only tip of the iceberg.
