    Me too. For a few seconds I thought he made just the car undriveable. And then, seeing him driving between parked cars was un unbelievable moment.

    Wow, what a historical moment fo Meeke. Very, very, lucky. First he didn't roll, second didn't hit the car, and third he found the way out.
    Anyway, congrads to him and Citroen team.

First time Citroen has shown pace comparable to the other cars over more stages.
    I agree, he was just comfortable in most stages, when came down to PS, clear overdriving the car, sliding all over the place, and it came to (almost) disaster.

    Agreed. Not yet as 1 in 1 as with VW, but he can always take the most of every situation - the champion.

    Safe mode for him whole rally, nothing special, solid points.

    Same as Neuville. Friday had lost a lot, played safe, but still fast times, somewhat impressive. He will progress in the season.

    I can't agree here. Toyota is taking the most of each rally so far, results and data. The only thing stopping them fighting in the top at the end is the weak driver line-up (except the "new" Latvala of course).

    Camilli did recce these stages but with a normal roadcar not suitable for "fast and rough" driving. Probably his was given to Tänak after the crash.

    The Finnish village team is getting more and more pros. Today I will grade them as semi pro, give them time.
    They have just begun, and will become pros with experience, but they need to gain data and finetune the cars!
