Much better my friend I started Physical Therapy yesterday to try and get it working again. The Technician was bending and pushing it so hard I thought it was going to snap off again! (And oh by the way, it hurt like hell!!!!! ).

This is what it is about:

The 2011 Acropolis Rally proved to be fascinating, the big winner having been decided right at the last moment. Four drivers had a great chance for the win when the final leg started today. Sébastien Loeb had the disadvantage to start first on all special stages, followed by Sébastien Ogier, Petter Solberg and Mikko Hirvonen. The former 2003 World Champion found himself out of the winning game pretty early, whereas Hirvonen started closing the gap from the two Citroen drivers. Loeb managed to be extremely close to the top at least until the second today’s loop. At that point, Ogier pushed hard and eventually built a lead which was not lost until the finish line, allowing him to have the 5th victory of his career and the 3rd for this year. This victory came as a result of clever tactics during Day 1 and 2, so that he wouldn’t have to start first each special stage. This great victory went together with the fastest time at the Power Stage, just 9 milliseconds (!) ahead of Loeb, awarding him with 28 Championship points to carry in his luggage back home. Sébastien Loeb tried to defend his lead against Ogier’s attack early this morning, but he couldn’t keep up with his pace. In any case, the seven times World Champion leaves Greece with a good number of points, keeping him by far on top of the Drivers’ Championship. As far as the Manufacturers’ Championship is concerned, Citroen now has an important advantage of 55 points against Ford since the DS3 WRCars made 1-2 in Greece.
