    What are you looking for them to say?
    I'm not, thats the point. They cant say much after another big off as he will either blame the car or himself and neither will be beneficial.

    Aye. I genuinely just think they are happy to be okay after that one. They are lucky too there weren't larger protruding rocks and things like that. May take some time to get back up to speed in Portugal.

    I'm guessing Vatanen's crash in 1985 was of the same scale, but the cars are a lot safer these days.

    I don't think there is such specialist that can determine what actually caused the incident. Speed is not the only factor here, and comparing what other drivers did also doesn't mean much. It could very well be unique and unpredictable sequence of events that triggered it.

    So Meeke basically just said that this was his biggest ever crash but they were uninjured... so that's alright then !

    He seems to have become the new Colin McCrash... Krash Meeke.

    Can he really carry on like this, only finishing about 1 rally in 4 ?

    Nope but if he continues like this he will find himself in retirement sooner than expected...

    Ott Tanak at the end of rally:

    "We all know that maybe sometimes Thierry is not the smartest guy (laughs). Normally he does not go very safe so it is not easy to close the gap with him..."
