...and speculation that Citroen may ask Loeb to back off and drive for a finish- apparently the manufacturers title matters more to them than the drivers....

I suppose this is because Sainz is out...

Considering that the situation at the moment is:
Citroen 147 & in Wales 1st, 5th, ret.
Peugeot 142 & in Wales 7th, 8th, 61st

I think.

Are we seeing signs of this (difficult to tell without being cold and in Wales)?

Solberg now leads after taking 8.5s away from Loeb.

Top few complete SS4 Rheola 1...

Solberg leads (COMEON!!!!!!!!!! ), Loeb 4.7 secs behind, McRae's over a minute down! Makkinen's currently in 3rd, nearly a minute down.

You see I want Solberg to win, but I'm not happy he has been let off the hook a bit.

I've just spoke to a friend of mine who is covering the rally. He says that the report about Citroen is pretty spot on.

SS5 Resolfen 1 next. All 43 km of it. If there's only a few secs between them after this beast of a stage, we're in for one hell of a battle!

If the report on Citroen is true, I hate that. Surely, given that he's gunning for the title, they can give Loeb his head? Is he driving a Citroen next year?!
