Wrc Rally Argentina 2017

Hehe, true. But Ogier, Tänak, Evans, Østberg, Neuville, Sordo, Paddon and Latvala have all been fast. And why not Breen, nothing to lose although he didn't really show speed first day. And then there is Hänninen...well he can have bursts of speed after being constantly slowest works driver, although it seems unlikely in this rally.

Don't forget it's Breen's first visit to south America & yesterday he missed out on a lot of experience for next year.. Shame really, as he's contributed most of the points Citroën's got.

Would be nice if RBMH shows the 2 El Condor passes today.

Could you share the link to the video?

I just found this photo at twitter.

Power Stage will be interesting but i'm mostly psyched about the fight between Evans and Neuville. Evans should be able to keep Neuville behind with his car fully fixed judging by the previous days but you never know. Either might lose their nerves and have a moment if they both push a lot. Evans should be more free to go hard since M-Sport look like they will have two cars on the podium anyway.

RBMH don't show anything else what official WRC promoter show. They only receive signal from wrc.

They are one in the same.

Narrow twisty stages have been dominated by Hyundai this year. I expect them on top of the power stage. Evans result will depend on the tires more than ever.

One split for this stages is rubbish!

Agree, but it again goes down to november last year. Link to the comments at that time:

Matton told Autosport: "I have the driver line-up for next year."
"All I will say is that if Sebastien Ogier gives me a call I will answer and we will have a chat, but there's no question about changing my driver line-up for next season."
"I would not say I would not take the call from Jari-Matti Latvala or Andreas Mikkelsen, of course I will - I am a polite guy!
"But the story is different for them: they are not French and they don't have the world title."

We don’t know how much Ogier would cost to Citroen and I wouldn’t be surprised to know that Citroen’s budget is the lowest of all WRC teams (including MSport; I know you won’t agree Eddie…). During ’16 Matton said several times he was interested in Neuville and in same occasions the Belgium didn’t look happy on the Korean team: why didn’t Matton catch him? Probably he wasn’t able to match Hyundai numbers and, most likely, the same happened with Ogier.

We also don’t know if Mikkelsen wouldn’t crash at the wheel of the C3 if, like Meeke is, he was fighting with main rivals for victory. It may sound basic or stupid, but I see the new cars as wild horses: they need to be properly tamed in order to deliver their full potential. Who knows, maybe the C3 is the one with largest potential and the hardest to tame…either way, we shouldn't be too harsh on the rider for trying the best he knows!
