Check out a few nice clips from the Cyprus rally:
Cyprus has always been a rally with safety and quality lackings – here Ogier is close to hit a car on the stage:

Patrik Sandell made a good performance in Cyprus – here is his own video:

That was Ogier’s mistake or rather his co-driver’s on that stage when they almost hit that car. They were off the route after taking a wrong turn. In the longer video you can see them turning back and passing that car again. I’d like to find that video from YouTube, but I haven’t yet. It was on the broadcast though.
First at all, I would like to say a big thanks for this blog! I started reading this few weeks back and this is pure quality. Keep it going!
And yeah, Ogier’s mistake was actually Ingrassia’s mistake as they had made a wrong turn during the recce and therefore also had wrong notes for part of the stage.
