Play Show, or Right-Click to DownloadWRC - Another rally where it's an arm wrestle between Sebastien Loeb and Marcus Gronholm. But in this case, it's Seb that comes out on top. For for the final podium, Mikko Hirvonen and Petter Solberg put on a great fight all rally.
But the real controversy came at the end of the event, the Fords of Gronholm, Hirvonen, Jari-Matti Latvala, Henning Solberg, Matthew Wilson, and Gareth McHale all penalised 5 minutes for side-window glass that was 0.5mm too thin. I'm sure we're going to hear more about this.
