    he had a lift in the Helicopter, but it was only for a saftey check. Think he got out on his own

    No piccies that I can find. He has been on a mission these last events...really driven by something inside him. When he bent it, it was always gonna be big

    EDIT: ^^^^^^ That was the first one.....


    I think he might have hurt his head/neck when he undid the straps.... we were watching him on the internal camera... let go the seatbelt and there was an audible "bonk" as his helmeted bonce connected with the rollcage ouch...

    Missed most of it on telly but saw the second crash, it was a biggie (not a lot of Pug left at the end) but its still McRae's shunt in Oz a few years back that makes me shiver...that was nasty...

    Marcus has had an awful season, the problems with the pug gearbox has driven him crazy.

    but when his car works he usualy wins the rally, make very few errors and one of the best, and arguably THE best driver in the mix today
