Looking forward to see happy Neuville flatout on tarmac for the first time in 2024 basically

Congrats to Neuville & Wydaeghe, well deserved. Gotta say though it's a very anti-climactic way to end the season, and it's weird that they interview him as champ before the rally is over, really weird, like this entire season has been.
I seriously hope next year will be more normal, but hopfully more comptetitive with Neuville now finally winning the championship he (hopefully) will have the confidence to push Kalle all the way to the title. I also hope Tänak gets his mojo back and stop making these silly silly mistakes, if we can get a 3 way fight like we used to back in 2017-2019, I'll be pleased.

So is Mikkelsen taking points from Saturday? Is the gap 4 points?? If yes, game on guys

I have a wild idea that if Fourmaux's heading to Hyundai, Cyril might ring him on the phone that he should DNF... That would help Hyundai massively...

Edit: But only if he doesn't manage to beat any of the first two Toyotas today.

If I’m right, my calculations is like this. After saturday point are Toyota 544 and Hyundai 534. Now if Hyundai drivers get mas sunday points (1st and 2nd sundey + PS) they will get 22. If Toyota gets next positions on sunday (in front of Ford - 3rd and 4th) tey will get 14. Whit this points Toyota wins manufacturer championship.

Maybe I’m wrong, correct me please.

I don't think so, he retired.

From my understanding yes, Munster always took the 6 points even in Super Rally.
And if Mikkelsen-Neuville are 1-2 for Sunday and Ogier-Evans 3-4, it’s a tie before the Power Stage (title for Toyota in case of ties because of more rally wins).

I know he is the champ now... but still.. zero words from Neuville about like.. sry for Ott and it isn't how I wanted to get the title..

But okay.. Thierry had a really stable seadom and that brought the title!
