All the cars have the same spec, apart from the new rear bumper/fender which has been on Neuville's car only since Wales.
Keep in mind these cars carry ballast to be brought up to the minimum weight anyway, and the occupants weights are rather central which is not too bad. The difference in weight among all the crews (driver+codriver) is much less than you might expect.Last edited by Mrpengski; 17th November 2017 at 12:06.

Not that surprised at the overall results so far.
Mikkelsen and Meeke had road position advantage and no big issues while all others had either one or both of them. Seemingly C3 works on dry gravel now, good.
Points:
- Lefevbre under real pressure now with Meeke doing good and Breen also very good considering he never drove here before
- Paddon relative to Mikkelsen/Neuville quite bad
- Ford, what a difference from "win all" in Wales
- Toyota still has issues with both speed and reliability

Lefebvre's doing pretty well, without the two punctures he'd be up there with Ogier and Paddon

Well to back you up, Meeke was pushing for changes to the car for months (even before the season started), but Matton only finally listened after Andreas' feedback and trouble in the car too. Every driver has said the same things anyway. Good to see it's finally improved at the back end of the season

Breen doing well, but also remember Citroen/Meeke did not do Rally Australia last year, and alot of the stage are different, so first time doing these stages for Meeke also.

The Danish friends on the forum are not surprised, that Jacob Madsen is doing well. However - that he is doing SO well is impressive
