    Rally Mexico this weekend folks. Still doesn’t look like anyone but @motorstv will be carrying it this weekend, in the UK at least anyway.

    Solberg earned himself the privilege of choosing where to start…

    *** SPOILER ALERT ***
    But the advantage that afforded him yesterday, going after the majority of the competition has now been eroded by over a minute due to a spin and a puncture. Thankfully he had a couple of spares on board. Not looking good so far for Ford with Latvala dropping a lot of time with suspension damage. However, as a manufacturer they still have Ostberg, currently third, albeit 40s behind second placed Loeb who himself is just .6s behind Hirvonen.

    Early days but I hope Hirvonen can keep it interesting at the top.

    Day 2 underway at 12:54 GMT.

    Opens with 4 rather large stages, 2 of them over 40km. Currently there is a…

    *** SPOILER ALERT ***
    Potentially-4-way battle for third with Ostberg, Latvala, Solberg and Tanak within 25s of each other. Latvala was on a real charge yesterday after his suspension issue so he has to be favourite at the moment.

    Long day today so it may shake things up. Citroen have a decent lead but just a spin could seriously compromise that.

    Anyone else keeping up with the WRC this weekend?
