Oli certainly seemed to draw the hardest heat - closer to the winner than either GG or Jon and so tight around the vital 15th place.

Don't encourage him to turn to the 'dark side' Ed!

Yeah... blast 'em.
Oli's race was lost early on; on the last 4 controls he outperformed the 14/15 place guys, which gave him a chance, just didn't quite have enough left on the run in.

just switched on tractrac, always seems a bit bizarre to see the course before the competitors...
has Gvozdev been off for a sneaky dump in the green?

The Swedes have really pulled out the stops this time. I'm watching the middle race live on the TV. Plenty of cameras out on the race so should be a good afternoon.
The terrain looks pretty shitty and the course pretty tricky, should suit Thierry.
Just seen JD start, looking well focused....

the bit around 7, 8,9, 10 looks really messy - can hardly read the map even on 3x zoom

its really quite weird to be following people round the course with the gps.
JD leading, for the moment.

And his teammate Fohr passed Dent and then went walkabout 2 controls in a row.
