    Suninen did very well beating both Lappi and Sordo (even considering the time issues), similarly Evans also did well, maybe expected a bit more from Lappi.

    However I am bit split as to how much to praise all 3 of these for their performance since they all got there after the friday massacre and basically only ever fought with Sordo and each other. With the drivers that were typically faster than them either out (Tanak, Paddon), not really competing (Ogier, Latvala, Mikkelsen) or cleaning the road (Breen, Meeke). If these were in position to fight would that mean that Evans and co would fight for 6-7 like usual? Impossible to tell.

    This statement is ridiculous every corner has a limit it can b taken at regardless of suspension travel these guys will take that corner at the absoloute limit and over it sometimes cause thats what wins rallys

    Suninen will grow. Who will be winning WDC first? Lappi or Suninen?

    Thanks.

    Latvalas hope is completely gone now. Unless something extreme happens this is a two and a half horse race.

    Toyota desperately need to sort out their reliability issues.

    Here's a guy who doesn't understand geometry, logic, or basic physics.

    Anyway, congrats to Neuville/Gilsoul. Exciting few months ahead, for sure.
