Pretty good speed in Toyota. JM blaiming his driving... Even Juho was fast before crash. I was expecting slower times. Hope they can improve tomorrow!

Ott Tänak
It's a bit of an empty feeling to finish the day like we did because I was really enjoying the stages. But that's life. Sometime's it tough, but we will fight back!!
We were caught out by some gravel on a long corner and got stuck on a steep bank with no chance of getting back to the stage. It's disappointing as there was basically no damage on the car, but now we need to focus on the positives.
In the past I've always struggled at this event. But this year we had a good test and worked hard on our pacenotes. The hard work seems to have paid off as we were setting good times and matching the 'Tarmac experts'.
We have to be happy with that, and we just needed a little more luck today#8 Ott Tänak - Martin Järveoja #8

I don't think this has been brought up.

Apparently Kris had a problem with a bleeding nose before SS1. He might have drove with it bleeding.
I'm surprised at Neuville's comment about pushing as hard as he can and falling behind. After Monaco and Sweden many of us thought Hyundai had the fastest car. This is a very twisty road and it's torque not top speed that makes the difference. Does that mean Citroen has the best torque out of all the cars while Hyundai best hp? We're going to have to wait for other rallys to confirm that.
So many plot twists this season so far. Love it. WRC hasn't been this interesting in a long time.

Will Meeke be able to stay on the road? That’s the doubt that probably everyone in Corsica is having for tomorrow. Ogier and Neuville seems to be struggling to keep his pace and if the Brit manages to handle the pressure it’ll be hard for them to win this one. Breen is doing another amazing demonstration; steadily faster and a handy Citroen B plan for the podium, in case Meeke eventually decide to try a ditch. Mikkelsen is on his own class in WRC2 and besides Sarrazin one other French is doing fine: Rossel, on a DS3 backed by FFSA. He was already fast on a R3 car last year and has now moved to a R5. On the opposite sense is Solans, actual JWRC leader. He’s returning to 2wd cars after having competed on WRC2.
Btw, no doubt that Corsica’s roads are beautiful and demanding, but this long stages route just sucks!Rally addict since 1982
