Wow a fifth different winner from 6 rallies in the WRC.  Still Ogier dominates in the standings, because he is so consistent, but others winning the rallies is so interesting. Especially after all those years when 1-2 drivers won everything, every season.

I see I should really consider following the WRC again. Like you said, I'm not used to see anything different than Loeb or now Ogier win 90% of the races

Also: Nick Catsburg won the 2nd race in the WTCC at the Moscow Raceway today, the 2nd Dutchman ever to win a WTCC race 

 

And in 45 minutes we have the Canadian GP  

 

There's also the Firestone 600 IndyCar in Texas today (it was postponed from yesterday) and NASCAR.

I'll have to catch the WTCC on repeat at sometime. Too full schedule.

Yeah, today was/is weird. Nothing in the morning and only WTCC in the afternoon (no MotoGP, no WSBK, no GP2 and stuff because the F1 is in Canada), but in an hour we will have F1, IndyCar and NASCAR all at the same f*cking time

Did it rain in the WTCC today, like yesterday. I just love rainy races.

What a start by Vettel. Hamilton blocking Rosber is NID tho.

It wasn't like yesterday when the entire Atlantic Ocean fell down on the track, but it was wet

Rosberg losing his cool in the fight with Verstappen 

 

Great race for Bottas

The Ferrari's strategy was ridiculus. Congrats, we continue to lose a lot of points
