YoMrWhite 11 Posted March 12, 2017 Why the hell did he turn left and took that tour through the car park instead of just trying to get back on the road again? Any ideas?Seriously, I hope the FIA doesn't come up with some kind of penalty for that... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingOfCoins 286 Posted March 12, 2017 I think he was pretty disorientated at that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sqdstr 107 Posted March 12, 2017 Finally Neuville finishes a rally, in 3rd even with maximum powerstage points.I hope this will bring him back on track now like his win in Sardinia last year did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scyy 0 Posted March 12, 2017 I'm betting he got disoriented going through the light foliage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tbtstt 2,385 Posted March 12, 2017 Pretty incredible finish to the rally. Great to see the C3 delivering on gravel and both Meeke and Neuville with a decent result. Would be good to see the top of the table close up more, but I'm perhaps being a little demanding there: this season continues to deliver on the early promise, fingers crossed it stays this way!

You're probably right. And maybe he initially thought the car was done. That could have easily damaged the wheels or the suspension.Anyway, the season looks promising. Ogier's in front as always, but we have 3 winners in 3 different cars after 3 rallies. And I somehow believe Citroen and Hyundai might have more potential to make further progress through the season than M-Sport. Not so sure about Toyota.

Scyy 0 Posted March 12, 2017 I have a feeling we're gonna see lots of different winners, Ogier still winning WDC though just because hes so consistent and will always podium even if he doesn't win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RallyDriven 398 Posted March 12, 2017 I'm pretty gutted, my livestream kept freezing and there was something starting on tv that I wanted to watch, so I stopped watching and followed it on twitter instead! Oh well, still ridiculous! I bet meeke was on a hell of an adrenaline rush, he tweeted a photo of a toilet roll after the stage! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dwkGravey 0 Posted March 12, 2017 With the camera flying around, I thought for sure Meeke had rolled. My wife came downstairs right at that moment to find me standing up with my hands on my head.Pretty good season so far! :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SirPhilMcKraken 279 Posted March 13, 2017 Meeke is a good boy! Been a busy weekend so not kept up with it much but that route through the car park to then win the rally was such a Colin thing to do! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd Ebay it, then use the money to pay for the repair of the f**ked rear end of my car! I have rewatched the clip multiple times now and Meeke was so lucky, that could so easily have been a retirement there. Fair play to Citroen, the C3 may have some handling issues on other surfaces, but it seems to be a tough car. Three different winners, from three different manufacturers in the first three rounds. Tarmac next, I wonder who will perform best? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
