Actually Ogier increased his lead to 2nd placed in champ. Though yes Neuville is now closer.
He does seem to have real issues driving the Fiesta on twisty sections though, corner turn-in is like driving without active diff.

What a finish! The battle to the finish was reminiscent of last year except this time we had to wait for the last car to come through, knowing Neuville had done all he could. I could not believe it when Evans touched the bridge and the next split came in! I feel for him and hope he comes back to fight in the front soon.
Must say the mood in the office on Friday afternoon was not all that upbeat, what with problems from the opening 2 stages. Now we have a great result but we obviously have some work to do, but at least we can do that with a smile on our faces :)
PS Does anyone know why my posts in the technical analysis thread must be approved by an admin, but not here?
Meeke's SS14 onboard is now on WRC+
Comparing with the first run he drives adifferent line and is 15 kph faster. Looks simply too wide touching the bank on left.
SS14 left, SS11 right
That was tough on Evans but most driver's have such a close 2nd place before they win.
From virtually nowhere to a WRC win was a bit too good to be true.
Great improvement from him and now really justified his drive.
Out of breath. What a fabulous rally.
Jesus Christ, Elfyn..
And great job for Neuville.

Third closest WRC victory in history - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...s#Closest_wins
Look how many of this list were in Argentina too. Top rally! Even if there were only 18 finishers.
Has Meeke spoken yet about yesterday's massive crash ?
Perfomance wise Ogier goes from bad to worse.
