So Friday it was Solberg's mistake or car simply broke down in the ruts?

Some different thoughts about that.

I can´t see there was his error. Car must´ve hit smth in the ruts with right rear, and it broke. It can hardly be judged from TV.

Really happy for Lappi. Seems the Hyundai is really improved for gravel.

Biblical rain shower in Otepää atm

No doubt one of Kalle Rovanpera's best drives ever. Fastest times on a Sunday when 2nd,3rd and 4th are not settled is exceptional. Take a bow man!

The only good thing for others is starting order, that they don't get slapped to the face right after their ultimate push that "good job, but Rovanperä was 3 to 5 sec faster with safe driving".

Weather lottery comes in - small local-shower clouds with risks that some will get heavy rain and others not. It makes it more interesting to spectate, but from sport perspective I don't like that some external-parameter makes it unequal or ruin 3-days long effort for someone.

Edit: found for example Loeb in Germany 2008, 13 stages in a row from the start, but the lead was not so big, 43 seconds ahead of Sordo.
