Suninen and Allen crashed at the same place. You can see it in the video, thanks to Charlies RallyFilmer:

Interesting; one very experienced driver, one villain going crazy everywhere, crashes at same spot. The same way.

I wonder if Allen caught sight of his wheel when he spun round and still thought 'I can carry on'.

I think for Drew Craig it is time to see things more seriously and stop risking so much his life ....Here he was very lucky that the first hit absorbed the energy a lot so when the car hit the tree at his side the impact had been eliminated a lot

If he keeps getting in the car he is also missing the Darwin gene.

Of course it’s part of the learning process. His last crash was in January and it was only his 6th rally with 4wd machine and already schooled the regulars speed wise

Tänak was much more crash prone at the same time than Vaher is.

Seems he actually made it to the end of the stage. 8 minutes lost

One important notice about Vaher - he did only few races in 4WD machinery, but dont forget that he is part of Toyota programme and he did pleeenty of mileage during tests.

Here's the video from ERC Sweden, where driver got penalty and DSQ for insulting a scrutineer steward..
Like I thought.. BS scandal from nowhere. Saying it to his codriver..

Completely agree, if that footage is genuinely the incident and nothing was said that's inaudible.

You've got in that video that the scrutineer who reported it was the one checking the driver's side, who said he was attempting to expose himself. He's wearing overalls which are zipped up to his chin. It's her job to know how they work - and that they would normally be zipped up at that point if he hadn't got out the car, isn't it?

Genuinely believe his hands are readjusting his clothing for comfort, he does it right up to his collar too. Nothing malicious there.

As for the comment, he could be joking with the codriver about the invasive nature of the checks. Or could be wishful quoting of what he wants to hear from the scrutineer. I'm not sure.

DSQ is too heavy punishment for small throwaway comment, which was also misreported, but if both parties agreed that what was reported happened without the video to see, then what are the stewards to do?

Not sure the scrutineers have been too clever with that report.
