Just finished, in Catalunya, the one but last rallye of the season. Winner Martin, after Loeb had to quit in stage 8 following an oil leak. (a rare technical problem finally eliminating a Xsara). Gronholm second, still no win on tarmac for him, Sainz third in his home rallye and fourth the big surprise Stephane Sarrazin, the former F1 testdriver, now in a 2003 Subaru, relegating 2003 world champion Solberg to 5th place. Is there still hope for Hakkinen?
