    Oh lovely. Didnt he pull out of the rally in Galway a few weeks before Rally Ireland with engine problems? I know that engine has only been rebuilt too.

    I'd say the crash on SS6 of Norway might not have helped matters...into a snow bank, likely to have caused or at least exacerbated an existing underlying problem.

    As the old competitor saying goes..."that's rallying..."
