Sebastien Ogier and Mads Ostberg both experienced rather unusual incidents during Rally Mexico.
Ogier, who was untouchable in Mexico, taking his second win in-a-row, injured himself when banging a door while going to the podium to celebrate his success.
The Frenchman was treated by the team doctors for a cutten eyebrow. Ogier was nevertheless amused after his misadventure.
It was a more annoying incident for Mads Ostberg.
While running comfortably in second position behind Ogier, the Norwegian driver was forced into retirement on the second day due to a broken alternator. Very upset, Ostberg kicked his car, injuring his foot. This did not prevent him to be at the start on Sunday under Rally 2 regulation.
Mads Ostberg did not lose his sense of humor, as he posted this picture on his Facebook account with this comment: "Ford Fiesta RS WRC vs Mads Østberg foot. Car strong! Car wins!"
