    I have heard that the roads are already before recce in very rough condition as here has rained a lot in the winter period. Forecast shows lots of rain for Wednesday so Seb might not loose anything if this rain moves forward.. #wrc
    Winter is yet about to begin in the southern hemisphere....

    This development is a wanted target for FIA.
    Cars are too expensive and to advanced to keep running without the data engineers!

    Too bad. Rallying has always been the motorsport where privateers could challenge the pros on a good day.

    Good watch. A few awkward moments when asked about different chassis around 11:00 min mark.

    so, Ogier hasnt had a win here and the last time Ford won this event was in 2002 with Sainz.

    it will be very interesting to watch Evans performance with Michelins compared to last year, his starting position is basically the same (last year 9th on the road now 10th)

    Lappi and Latvala have excellent starting positions to make a very good result but Toyotas reliability is a big question mark. Sordo and Breen have also a good starting pos. Remember Sordo had a very good performance in Mexico.

    Good points EstWRC. It should be an interesting one. The question will be how much of a disadvantage Ogier, Neuville and Tanak will have after the first day. We might see a crazy result with an all second and third driver podium like Lappi, Breen, Evans. You'd expect Sordo and Mikkelsen to be strong but they have often put themselves into good positions just to mess it up later on. Meeke will either be pretty average or fight at the top and then lose it again. Latvala has something to prove. If there are a lot of casualties maybe Suninen can have a strong points finish.

    I can't wait.

    Could be good news for road-opener Ogier !
