Second for Ekstrom and a weekend to forget for Solberg in Latvia. Unless Mattias has a major smash and has a zero score in Germany or Argentina then it seems unlikely that he won't take the title this year.
I think a different Champion is a positive thing for the Championship, though I was really hoping to see Petter make it three in a row: especially given the increased works competition in this years Championship.
What are peoples feelings on the Solberg disqualification in Q2? I don't disagree with punishing overly-aggressive driving but, despite my personal bias towards Petter, I still think the judging standard is a bit erratic. Was the decision made by a local circuit official, or someone from the FiA?
