There isn't many S2000 cars on the Islands to rent though.

Nice to see how Ingram show's his talent with the Twingo beating a difficult combination Cerny/208.

Černý is kinda strange driver. He is sometimes very fast, sometimes very slow. He has hardly any consistency. For example this year he was very fast in Jänner and Latvia which are both his favorite events but than he was completely off the pace in Portugal. He blamed himself for writing bad pacenotes. Here he was very positive after pre-event testing saying how good setup they have but this morning he was complaining about completely wrong setup and that he must go back to the one from Barum. From the events where I saw him live I think that when he loses time it's often because of pushing too much, braking too late for ideal line etc. He himself described interesting situation from Latvia where during pre-event testing he set the best time in originally planned last run without any pushing. He decided to the stage again and again with less pushing and he kept beating his times from previous runs. I think that it's the key for him, not trying too much...

Almost everybody going off somewhere. Lappi doubles his lead!

Flat tyre of Kristiansen because of the bumper laying on the stage of Breen..

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Any thoughts on Lappi's pace ?
Whats he been like before on tarmac ?

Do the high speeds and jumps favour him here as he's a Finn ?

The rear bumper is missing after what Breen called the biggest moment of his life in SS6...



Abbring stopped after the finish of the stage and they were putting water into the radiator - return of the problem from Greece ?

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Rear screen gone again for Breen on SS7 - car cant take the compressions and no screen is affecting the aero ...

No Abbring, he was doing lots of water in the car after the previous stage. Hope it's not the same again, otherwise it's getting a big issue..

Abbring late in - problem, says maybe going to retire ??
