    So cool bluuford. Awesome to be a part of something like that. Us forumers have always been grateful for your insight and now so can say you played a pivotal role in your countryman winning a world rally. Great job!

    How long have you been working with Ott on the weather side?

    Hats off ,bluuford,amazing job,what else can I say?
    Unbelievable excellent prognosis for somebody who has it as hobby.
    I will not forget your prognosis for a particular stage at Acropolis before 4-5 years,that you was very right,even at the time the rain will start/stop.When I say to them that somebody from Estonia give me that prognosis,looked me very strangely,hahaha

    Exactly same experience with Bluuford's prognosis for Barum city stage five or six years back

    Clearly these drivers (Lappi, Meeke, Mikkelsen) got an advantage in that stage, it is also visible from vids. However, turning it around it's also visible that this late starters did have a disadvantage on other stages, notably on those in the afternoon. So for whole day combined it's imo impossible to tell what position was better.

    Anyway I also wonder why whole Hyundai and Citroen went for full soft for Saturday morning. Very long stage on abrasive tarmac, on wide roads (which dry faster) and with concrete blocks that prevent cutting (and taking wet dirt on the road). That said Citroen drivers who did any kind of cross-setup on Friday were complaining that it's hard to drive, so they prbly didn't want to go 3+2/3.
