Hirvonen badly needs a good result on this one to drag himself back into contention (as does Sordo really). Hopefully we'll be in for a good scrap at the front with Loeb, Hirvonen, Latvala and Solberg

most interesting round in a long time

[gomick]

Good to see Kimi get some good points again...

Sebby, made it boring again already

[BertMk2]

Good result for Kimi, pretty impressive. Seb's made it boring but Solberg is giving the Fords a good scrap so that's good.

[tbtstt]

Great result for Solberg again, I was expecting Solberg-luck to strike yesterday (especially when he had that slight off), but its brilliant to see him on the podium again. Think he's managed to get more points in the first few rounds of this year then he has in the last couple of seasons!

As has been said countless times, Loeb is clearly a talent, but his style is so clinical its boring.
