Also Ptaszek. Not so long time a go people were joking about him but his progress has been really fast.

i want a free trouble fiesta for Evans tomorrow.I want to fight with Tidemand.
Do we know what was the problem at Evans fiesta today? Something sure,not Evans quotes about ''maybe broken rear roll bar''
Evans is now on live tv doing the sss without a tyre on the back left wheel.
Lemons for 1st day to
Mikkelsen with no troubles is almost 1 minute behind Meeke. At last rallies no progress.
Neuville for obvious reasons.Tarmac Sordo faster fair and square,even when counting for points.So even with no points anxiety and good road position,there is no speed.
Paddon,definetely driver error from video.Even if he wasnt out of road and had a spin,he would have a big damage hearing the loud bang at video.
Ostberg he is faster only from Camilli for just 3,7 sec.The joke with no proper car he started from citroen,nobody believes it.
Latvala sadly will not be a champion ever. He cant take advantage when Ogier isnt fast.These times are very few,and he will screwed it.
Tanak same way.He has to do something.Last years he hadnt chances.Now he has and he keep crashing as before some years.
Oranges
for Meeke sure.
Ogier too,keeping calm when he cant be fast.
Sordo fast and with no errors at a surface we havent see him excel.
Paddons crash from another angle.Big error.

That looks like from an action movie.
What happened to father and son Solberg today?
stepson Tidemand was ahead of Henning when he stopped. Not bad.
Both were quite big crashes, not just some touch of the rocks...
what a photo!

Bad feeling seeing this burnt wreck, reminding of other worse accident 30 yrs ago. This could also have ended much worse.
Clear that extra hard pushing from Paddon made this outcome.

Just read Paddon's and Tanak's statements and both are saying exactly the same. some concrete had came out of the gravel and it just airlifted their car to the cliff and that was it. :(
Today I managed to see four stages, both Caminha and Viana twice. Although, really hard day to watch the rally out of spectator zones. Some pics from those stages:

Amazing driving by Meeke and Veiby (that boy has really big balls, shame of that puncture). You'll see soon a video of what Meeke did...
wow!!!

“We’re not 100 percent sure what the issue is but I don’t have the feeling that I normally have with the car. I’m just not getting the performance that I usually get from the Fiesta so the guys will have a look in service and hopefully we can find the culprit.
“It’s not normal to feel as though we are driving okay and have the guys that we have around us and Pontus [Tidemand] so far in front. He’s driving well for sure, but if I can beat him on his home turf in Sweden then it doesn’t make sense to not be beating him here!”

You can see what I said before at the end of the video. He reaches that narrow spot about 130/140km/h. I believe there will be some recordings closer to the little jump. You can see what it was hearing people and watching their faces:

This is one of the things which I dont like - there is crashed car, burning, fire and smoke everywhere and nobody is interested. Everybody is taking care about themselves, nobody stops on the place of accident to check if anybody needs help (with exception of Tanak, but I am sure it was not his intention to stop there)...
For sure that is not true. Accident happened at 15:50. They have stopped the rally at 16:00, 10 minutes later. And they didnt show yellow flag to any of the crew, they have left them to do the stage normally until the finish... From perspective of normal people who are not rally fans this is a big failure...
