That's just excuse for the public. The real reason we'll never know. But considering his "record" this year isn't impressive is it? Ogier has same amount of crashes and still has 3 1st places

It looks like it, but why can’t Toyota also try a shared 3rd car, between Latvala and Meeke? With Tanak as leading driver and Lappi getting more experienced, Latvala chances to become WDC are weakening, no matter how hard he tries. Maybe a shorter programme, providing less pressure and more time to prepare his favourite rallys (like Sordo is now doing) would be good for him.
Without Ogier they still can be competitive if they enter Paddon or Tidemand (or both!) alongside Breen and Ostberg. Above all let’s hope they resist to bring Lefebvre or Camilli…
Yes, I know it is, pretty much everyone knows it is too which is why it is lame excuse. To be fair to Kris, he's had his share of bad luck, picking up punctures while leading or in podium positions. It's not all his fault, but bad luck does seem to follow him around.

In Monte Meeke spun and reversed into a ditch and went into a snowbank. In Sweden again into a snowbank. In Mexico clipped a plant pot and put the car on its side in the ditch. Corsica was Paul's mistake, but then again he's a part of the team and they both were sacked. A bit more than Ogier's small mistake in Portugal. And obviously it's not just this year but all of last year's wrecks.
Yes Monte mistake but still a reasonable result and 17 points in the bag. Plant pot cost him what, half a second?
Pretty much half the field went into a snow bank in Sweden, yes Meeke has made a few mistakes but it's often the case that the punishment didn't fit the crime.
But yes, as a Meeke fan, often watching and waiting for something to happen!
