Yeah he was interviewed by Molly after the stage in service. Basically it's a failsafe system which he said wasn't in place last year, which kicks in to protect the engine and other components when temps get too high. Basically the system manages power output in relation to Performance vs reliability when the temps are high. Said things were under control although obviously he was putting a brave face on it, as they've still had two cars suffer a bit much.

according to Fowler, they had different mapping to Tanaks yaris.
Maybe they had to try some different things at one car from other 2 cars, for safety reasons.
ie less power for Tanak from mapping,but when you dont have high engine temp like at Latvalas and Lappis car with different mapping for more power,at the end you gain,because your less power car(Tanak)car didnt get at safe mode due to mild mapping,so no high engine temp=no safe mode.

Yep totally clear. You do anything to "save" yourself from the fact that you spam post too fast without thinking. So for the last time on your way to NOT-land.
Obviously it wasn't since all 3 improved. bb
Going to follow real drama with Neuville instead.
Scenery is nice, but Rally2's on these type of roads aren't that interesting to watch at least
