thank god we have the rule that they have to start in the championship order in firs two days otherwise Ogier would have won the title already couple of rallies ago. It is just depressing how much better they are when the conditions are equal, we saw it today and like Meeke said thats the reality. Yeah, they have the best driver, Ogier but im not sure if they have the best three drivers, the car seems to be unbelievable. In my eyes Meeke, Paddon and Tänak are fast as Mikkelsen and Latvala or even faster but they just dont have the car and experience yet. Thats purely my opinion.

"To be in the lead tonight is an amazing performance and I'm sure that everyone who follows motorsport closely will have noticed it and I'm sure my rivals would have seen what we have done for two days."
but for a injection of reality a glance at the gap in the results shows:
So if what he has done is "an amazing performance" then the performance of thoseTime

coming 0.04 seconds after per km after must also be an amazing performance.
Even 0.1 sec/km after is undetectable to anybody viewing and only way to see any difference is with a good, accurate stop-watch. Latvala was .9988% as fast and 0.0012% means effectively no unbelievable difference.Last edited by janvanvurpa; 13th September 2015 at 19:40.

I'm a Latvala's fan but I think they're right to say Ogier's was an amazing performance. Try to do your counts for sunday's stages in equal condition and not for the whole rally.
And by the way, in 3 hours event one tenth of a second per km is not a little gap.
Ogier is the way he is but as a driver he is near perfect. He didn't make a mistake in an entire year, he's good on every surface, he's mentally strong, he has a better pace note system and make always the best decisions choosing setup and tires. He has no weak points. This makes his performance amazing, others can be very good, or very strong but he is amazing.
