Yesterday's office, Neuville came unstuck and went off and took a wheel off as well , think the pressure got to him, Tannak, as usual can't control his aggression and doesn't know when to drive to the conditions and broke his car, Latvala won with a controlled drive unlike last year when he went off on the last stage and lost second place.

Seb Ogier, the best driver in any form of motorsport drove well within his limits, after his main rivals for the championship self imploded, he only had to finish to claim his 6th Driver's Championship., it's a real shame (imo) that M-Sport or MS-RT can't keep him next year and he will go back to Citroen.

M-Sport run on about 25% of the budget of the other teams with next to no help from Ford. The other 3 teams have major backing from the factories, something which Ford seems loathe to do. Guess they get all the plaudits from M-Sport winning without having to outlay much. :(

Anyway, Mads Ostberg in the Citroen, followed by Hayden Paddon from NZ who came second in the Hyundai, Elfin Evans from Wales and finally Seb Ogier, both in Fords.

Mrsdrron was able to drive our Datsun 1600 through the Flinders range on 3 wheels without even noticing it was missing one.She slowed a little and I noticed the wheel roll past us.Great car the 1600.
We had it serviced by Nat Zanardo who used to drive one in the Bathurst endure races.Stopped on a 6 pence,accelerated better than any car I came up against and when he serviced it fuel consumption improved by 75%.
