Hey, It was pretty much expected that the leaderboard wud look something like this .... though Im sure Colin will jump up a few slots by the end of it but won't manage challenging the top 2 unless they have some extreme bad luck ...

So I guess a Gronholm, P.SOlberg , Mcrae podium is gonna be the final result .

Cheers

PS -- Any idea where we can cover it live for free ???

Bad news....Solberg's car has been set up too low to the gravel, which is causing mud to choke the radiator and subesequently leading to engine overheating problems...

End of day 2:

Gronholm leading his team-mate Mikko Hirrvonen in 2nd by 2 mins12.1secs, Chris Atkinson 9th, Solberg retired for the day after hitting a rock and damaging his car, Colin McRae 7th and Spanish sensation Daniel Sordo 9th...

Looks great for BP Ford team as far as constructor's championship goes.
