    So it's reasonable to think that the Yaris is losing more time compared to everyone else in this situation. Latvala is definitely capable amd he's not distraught. This time it might be a matter of a power difference to the guys ahead.

    It's a possibility but it can't be said for sure.

    its not clear yet the reason they are loosing time.
    Latvala is not the driver that is capable to be first on the road without loosing ages.
    This only Loeb and Ogier have managed.
    so we don't know how much Latvala, or the car have share at this.

    Actually he doing well yesterday too, if you remember he was on 3rd place before his car broke. He doing good rally, but fortune not on his side.

    When was that? I can't remember.. I thought Lefebvre went straight from JERC to WRC2?

    His Monte and Sweden accidents both happened when had a big lead and wasn't pushing so I'm not sure what your point is meant to be?

    For example RMC 2015 or Ypres 2015. Also Janner but Lefebvre was very slow there at the beginning but in the end got farther than Breen. Got disqualified one stage before the end.
