Finally Ogier is clearly fastest this year. King of Portugal no matter south or nord.
Fairplay from Neuville to honestly say Seb is just faster. No childish excuses, no sick ego, no hatred. You will never see that from Paddon for example.
Mikelsen just showed that noone was wrong for not putting him in unfamiliar car to fight for positions.

Woah, unexpected Paddon hate. I wouldn't say he's my favorite, but in the battle of biggest egos I think Neuville beats Paddon by miles. Hell, he's got a bigger ego than Ogier did in 2011.
As for Mikkelsen, I don't rate him as highly as most people do, but for him to be in an R5 while someone like Lefebvre or Hanninen is in a works WRC car is a farce.

'Ending Rally Portugal on a high with maximum points on the Power Stage! We finish fourth overall and are hungrier than ever !'
See, I said a good performance would keep him more motivated.#M-SPORTER

Colin Clark @voiceofrally
And to think, I had concerns about reliability at the start of the year. Just the most unbelievable job Mr Wilson and his team are doing.
You weren't the only one Col, plenty on here.#M-SPORTER

Not a tech failure.

To sum up, the same as I watched when I saw the cars testing. Ogier drives on Saturdays in Loeb mode. It was clear this morning that the job was done, so he can also drive on Sundays in safe mode. M-Sport people are also doing their job. The car is clearly much more reliable and efficient than in past seasons. Of course, a huge percentage of the improvement has arrived with Ogier, contributing with his knowledge after driving for the best teams of the last years. A clear probe of what I say is both Tanak and Evans performances nowadays.
