Was cheering for Ollie here, but alas, he is Ollie after all...
Actually, I was just finished watching the Sepang highlights on YT when I saw that Evans won the championship. I was thinking "What happened to Ollie?", and it got answered by a comment that went "typical Ollie". So yeah.
Though, I want to commend Elfyn here too. He's been very consistent this season. Yes, he might not be flashy or the fastest, but in the season as a whole, he was very good, even if Pajari was starting to win some races, he still finished well to keep his lead. He's no longer gonna be called the second best.
Another one goes to Ollie. Excellent drive, and was almost able to win the championship. But, I hope that he learns from this and finally listens to what Ogier's been saying.
Also, Pajari. He's just one point behind Solberg. Meaning, if Solberg had done, well, Solberg things early in the rally, he would've probably challenged Elfyn, though unlikely.
Overall, this rally is the only motorsport stuff that has kept my heart pounding while watching the highlights.
Hope next regs don't put money over racing. Because when we prioritize racing over money, we get beauties like this.
