Stage 14, the second run across the Turini, was cancelled mid-run. Lots of snow and more falling. First driver got stuck, held up others. They got going again after a few minutes but then the stage was flagged. Ogier and many others didn't even start. And it was supposed to be the Power Stage. I think they cancelled one running of the Turini last year as well. One stage to go.
Fantastic. The only thing that would have made it better, would have been Kris, driving a MINI. Good for him.
A grand finish for Kris. I think Kubica will show us what he can do this year, he showed fine form. Quite a challenging rally for all.

Looks like Dani didn't do so well. He is a good driver, but careful. When he takes a chance and makes a move he is just not as sure of it as Kris. I have always thought Kris was the better driver, just had some bad luck. Now he has his chance and is making good.
Sordo actually did pretty well until his brand new Hyundai stopped working. He was competing, ironically, with Meeke, give or take. Then, in 3rd place overall and 6.1sec behind Meeke after Stage 4, his car just stopped working on the way to Stage 5. There was some sort of issue with the electrical system and they couldn't fix it so he was forced to retire.

Seb is one lucky guy. When I saw that video I figured he'd have bent something. It pays to have a strong car & good luck on ones side. He drove a great rally.
And that wasn't his only lucky moment. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTNnLw_0QtY"]Rallye Monte Carlo 2014 SS9 Sebastien Ogier Crash WRC sorti de route VW .by nico pharel - YouTube[/ame]
