Rovanperä has now 0.5 + 0.5 road cleaners.
Gronholm will be commentating on the next stage. Always so fun to hear him.

2 guys retired because of watersplash..
Evans:,,hold my beer, won't happen to me''
eem, Rovanperä 2.3sec slower than Sordo in 1st split...
Seems like a Hyundai stage
Maybe Sordo just went for it, Neuville is also slower than Sordo
Replay footage showed that there was no big water over the bonnet of Tänak's car...
They just showed the Ott water splash from outside cam on Estonian tv and it wasn’t aggressive at all. Came through nicely
Confirmed game over for Tänak:

Thats what an electric motor generally does in motorsport. What did all the rally people except? ThT the batteries start dancing at the stage end?Quote:

Maybe that evolution, development of EV´s doesn´t belong to rallying? Rallying is with ordinary engines...Quote:

Evans has lost the sump guard and losing a lot of water
Game over then...?Quote:

Now puncture for Lappi….
So, Sordo will be on 5th position soon? :)
Fourmaux smashing it
if Fourmaux continues like that I believe he will get a drive in rally1 this year..
what a pace on this stage.. 20.4s faster than Mikkelsen
e: Evans moving on map
seems like made it to the start on time after all
Yeah, Fourmaux switch with Loubet seems to happen soon.Quote:

really don't understand this stage result if Lappi is puncture, how about rov and nev why the two also 10 seconds slower , no rain , no issue what happenedQuote:

I saw similar time with Kajto and Rossel,and thought that.
Fourmaux 1,5 secs faster than Oliver on the three first stages today.
Evans managed to roll thru, +38s to Sordo
On the positive note, we can see more Rally2 cars...
How so? TBH it seems the other way round. The ICE part is the one causing trouble and failing and using EV tech is much more reliable (no issues with watersplashes for example).Quote:

1/1 Unfortunately we have to retire for the day. Very close end to the SS9 finish, there was a water splash and after driving through it, the car stalled and we faced some electrical issues, which were something that we couldn’t fix on the road section.
2/2 The team will bring the car back to the service and will take a closer look and hopefully we are able to continue tomorrow.
Meaning I can switch off quicker.Quote:

As it is, this is just bad press for them.
