Mikkelsen retired with double-puncture from 1st in 2017 and crashed on SS3 after meeting a tractor last year.
Breen was 3rd last year when he first got some throttle issues and then crashed on next stage.

Double puncture from going off the road isn't much different to a crash retirement though really, it just makes it sound better.

When you have a double puncture and nothing else is wrong you can continue if you have two spares, when you crash and the car is undrivable it is not possible under any circumstances. If you don't have spares the resulting effect is the same.
Just like crash on pre-event test or on shakedown doesn't automatically mean you retire from event, if there is an extra car available or the team manages to fix it. If there isn't extra car or enough time to repair the effect is the same.

Thierry and Ott will do full seasons, Dani 7 rallies and Loeb 6. So we have one event left over, unless they enter 4 cars but that seems unreal and illogical anyway. So in all honesty, what would Mikkelsen do in Hyundai next season? Adamo can't be pissed about anything.
Leaving Andreas out of Australia means just one thing IMO – he's out of Hyundai. Adamo said that after signing Ott they're still negotiating with Craig and Andreas. Preferring Breen to Mikkelsen means that Adamo has set his sights on Craig and it's logical that Breen would take pretty much whatever is thrown at him. His whole 2019 season has been like that.Last edited by sinepikohv; 2nd November 2019 at 08:48.

Actually looking forward this rally pretty eagerly. Rally is driven in so spectacular landscape and usually drivers have been here more relaxed in pre-event activities and giving out more in interviews. And then when rally starts most will drive flat out since there is not much to hold back in this season finale.

I know this has less to do with this year's rally, but I was wondering, how come Perth left the WRC scene after 2006, was it because of them trying to be environmental friendly? Also, does anyone know/has an idea where to next for Rally Australia after this year's edition?
Only you know your true potential.
This year we rally #ForCraig

"The 2006 rally held on 26 to 29 October was the final one staged in Western Australia. It was cancelled by the holders of the rally contract, the Western Australia Tourism Commission after the then ruling Australian Labor Party decided to withdraw funding, despite widespread support for the rally, the largest annual international event held in Perth, to continue."
