    This rally is quite unusual in the the leader has been happy just to finish as the overall winner, plus Tanak has been out of it

    If all the main contenders were at the top they'd all be fighting for position on both days, and their points would be a fair reflection.

    Great drive by Solberg. It's a shame he couldn't get a deal done and be in the Rally1 Puma.

    Points system is not easy for people who understand it, for most of regular and news fans it is only chaos. So it doesnt needs to be made clear, it should be made more easier and understandable for everybody.

    Indeed. And do we get the action and show? Given that there is no easy way to see Sunday standings (downright impossible with official sites), the entire competition for Sunday classification remains in the dark for vast majority of followers.

    I think it is not secret as it was mentioned on social media, but her brother died last week.
