    I was thinking the same.
    IMHO 2 reasons;

    - how he sets the car to be fast
    - doesn't back off when needed

    True to some point, but the I20 reliability and rigidity as been a problem for Neuville aswell long before Tanak started driving for them.

    Adamo only brings turmoil and tension to the team, unfortunately. Adamo only wants victory victory, but this does not happen, you have to be human from time to time.

    Adamo brings manufacturers titles.

    Let's see if that continues this season though....

    So?
    One can be faster and still avoid problems.

    2 weeks ago in Portugal i witnessed how everyone swerved to avoid a big stone in the line. Untill evans came along, he just kept to his line and went straight over it. It could have ripped his wheel clear off.
    Yet he was slower than rovanpera and katsuta who went around.

    It just so that certain drivers don't respect their material, while others do.

    and front suspension got a bigger impact from a rock but rear suspension was wrecked. This rear of Hyundai seems so fragile

    Yep, seems Ott can't play a long game. 40 sec of lead and trying to push a stage not cleaver for me. He got enough of speed to be fast and safe out of troubles

    It has to be how he sets the car up. No other explanation I can think of why his cars always have weird reliability issues.

    Tänak has managed to retire or lose about the same amount of rallies from the lead as how much he has won.

    Think about that in proportion to how much times it has happened to Ogier? Nobody is this Lucky/Unlucky

    yes.. he should have driven with Loubet' pace and used a blinker to go around the stones.. Tänak's push is something like Portugal's PS, not today's stages.. that's his more or less normal speed.
