Does anyone have a list of the WRC gravel crews this year?

Obviously they play a key role on events like Corsica. I watched them all come through in Germany and certainly recognised a few faces.

Maybe if there isn't a list in existence we could make one in this thread.

The only complete pair I know is Phil Mills/Gwyndaf Evans for Elfyn Evans.

How could you know they are doing a bad job? It's not because Tanak can't set good times that they aren't doing their job well. Same goes for Neuville.

It is not based on times, Tänak has hinted many times that the crew isnt spot on. For example yesterday when Evans won the stage and said his crew was spot on but Tänak said he didnt know where all the water and mud was.

But yeah i also agree that Tänak has been pathetic at this rally. I just dont know what has happened to him, he showed also good pace on tarmac in 2012 and in Monte this year.

Can WRC2 crews use gravel crews, or is this a Freudian splip? ;)

That was the list for Monte Carlo, where all crews are allowed to have a gravel/ice crew. ;)

Anyone have someone more info about when gravel crews were banned from WRC, and when and in which rallies allowed again?
