it is for third time this season that Dmack and Tänak is leading the rally...Poland, Finland and now Spain...followed by Wales and Australia in the future

Good run by Tanak tonight, but the fact that Bertelli was 2nd (beating Ogier !) shows having the better conditions had more to do with it...

As someone who makes their living from analysis, I get a little frustrated with this sort of comment. When you say 'statistic crap' you are in fact referring to an instance of a 'fact'. Whether that fact means anything requires more work. Just because someone is 'crap' at the other work does not mean everyone is crap at the the other work. Generally the DMACK instance would be evaluated a number of ways. First off there is the basic. An event occurring 8 times means there is less than 0.5% this is a random or chance event. Second, single values on their own offer very little to analyse. It would be much better to have the ratio of one value to another value, and then compare. Just sayin.

It would be much simpler to say which are the circumstances - the weather, the running order, Tanak driving skills.... whatever.
