    Tanak will be one of the first drivers on the power stage...which will be his strategy?

    A bit early to talk about powerstage but I already fear some massively embarrassing stuff.

    Ogier opened a can of worms and FIA didn't react to it yet. Here we might get 3-4 drivers getting deliberate penalties.

    okay still a long season ahead but still a huge blow for Ott considering the championship.

    and it would have been a great battle between him and Loeb for the win today.

    People wont like this, but i still think Tanak should've stayed at Msport for another year. I said it last season at the time and I'll stick by it. He showed he had the pace to fight Seb in the same car (a car that was proven to be the most complete across the whole year), and if he waited till the end of the year he'd have found out Ford were coming back with more support too. Instead he signed for Toyota in July/August....

    The €€€€€ would've still been on offer in 2019 with Ford, Citroen, Hyundai and Toyota all having multiple drivers out of contract. Msport Ford was his best bet for the championship win this year

    no, he did right for signing with Toyota.

    and he knew about Fords support when he signed with Toyota.


    it can also happen with other teams and cars.

    You mean like Rally Sweden, where Evans had to get a penalty in order to give Ogier one point? No. 2 is no. 2, especially in crucial situations.

    I am afraid you might have a point there

    [QUOTE=RICARDO75;1175451]The real rally will be today with different start orders. I'm curious how it's going to be between Ogier, Meeke, Tänak, Loeb and Sordo.

    START ORDER
    1. Neuville
    2. Latvala
    3. Mikkelsen
    4. Ogier
    5. Meeke
    6. Tänak
    7. Loeb
    8. Sordo

    Should not Latvala, Lappi and Sunninen start first since they are superrallying ??
