That statistics is strongly influenced by the starting order, i.e. championship leader rarely leads the event in its first half.

Nobody could realistically expect much more. He did good rally.

IMHO we can because he never drives like that. That simply isn't his way of doing things.

Happy for Meeke and Citroën, they really needed a boost. Happy for M-Sport and I really really hope Ford marketing managers see that. Happy for Hänninen as well.

Neuville again confirmes that...

I can't help myself but old Loeb's words came to my mind seeing the screenshot of Neuville's incident. Loeb has been always saying (especially in Catalunya) that a lot of the cutting is basically...

Looks like also the ball joint torn apart from the upright?

Hey, not a right-hand corner! That's first time I think.

Anyway another crash on asphalt. It's very rare when it doesn't happen...

This is perfect, thanks! Really big difference between first and second pass and clearly wrong line in the second one.

I do not agree here. From the photo it is clear they hit the massive concrete. If other car survived that it's more or less pure luck.

I thought as well but none of aluminium parts I have on my table is so white inside (I admit I don't have anything forged here only die casted and machined parts and moreover not suspension ones)....

Any idea what material is it with such white color? Some sort of cast white iron?

From dimviii's photo it's clearly too deep cut. No accidental hit of a stone but a concrete bridge like I think Bluuford said.

I don't know why You mention in the context of WRC2 because with their running order it's irrelevant .

Of course but it's still crazy ;)

This is ridiculous. He was 7,6 seconds faster than Suninen on 2,2 km while he was 26 seconds faster over the whole leg. In the end it doesn't change anything between the two anyway.

2012 Monte Carlo. Louise Cook with Fiesta N3 was the last PWRC driver and Kevin Abbring with Fabia S2000 was the first non-championship driver. They gave Kevin 10 minutes gap but he finished SS1 (30...

On dry it's rather impossible to take so much time in Catalunya. Kopecký took 26 seconds on 6 stages which is a lot cosidering how close every fighting here is but it's nothing compared to time lost...

A lot of people.

It's funny to go back to Rally Poland thread and read how Mikkelsen was useless driver...

Unfortunately yes... and he said they asked for having bigger time gap but without success.

Greensmith already out?

OK, it can be like that. I thought You based the assumption on the fact that it was rough and old ;)

Harri, I don't know how it's specifically with Spanish asphalt but here in CZ old rough asphalt always has better grip than the new smooth one.

I heard that there were no conflicts during the recce. The people blocking the road let rally cars pass without creating any sort of drama.

True that. Even here in CZ it was the main topic in every single newspaper, TV or internet news server. WRC can never ever achieve that.
