It's funny to go back to Rally Poland thread and read how Mikkelsen was useless driver...

It's hilarious to be honest.

#10 Latvala/Anttila will not restart. Strong impact under the car resulted a lubrication system failure and the crew is forced to retire.
Who may have said something so stupid!
I didn't say they were bad either, but that they haven't been catching up their competitors lately. If you compare the multi-million €/$/£ Toyota project vs. "privateer" M-Sport, let's say from Portugal to Catalunya, I don't think they've closed the gap. And technical failures ofcourse must be counted in. It's not like they're forgiven in this sport.

A lot of people.
Are everyone in the English, so they do not understand anything?
With a new car I do not believe this will be fine in the end
strange to see Latvala
Startlist published at 22:00 local, and TGR tweet at 21:55 local. So maybe didn't have enough time to inform race control?!
All Michelin crews with 5 Hard tyres, except Neuville and Mikkelsen with 4 Hards and one soft

Morning all. Early bike ride to a bakery on freezy morning here in Kyiv it's perfect to wake-up before such an interesting day of rallying. Looking forward for a great rally day.
Good morning guys.

Spots of rain falling at SS7 stopline! Temp around 15c - this could be very interesting!

Other stages should be full dry?
Sat 08:05 - SS7: Delay
The stage will not run until spectators are standing in the designated safe positions.
Sat 08:09 - SS7: LIVE
Al Qassimi started at 0808hrs.
No restart for Latvala. Oil system too heavily damaged.
Clark saying on rallyradio that Latvala goes so much faster with Toyota that it stresses the car more than other drivers and that leads to reliability issues.
Imo there are 2 angles to this:
- he is driving "full speed" and car can't handle it (car has issues)
- his driving destroys the good car (remember how in VW his car seemed always to have issues while other 2 were ok)

Lappi is missing window on rear driver side. Looks like it was only poorly attached before stage.

Slight rain on El Montmell now. Very little.
Juho faster than Neuville on splits... not a title contender speed.
Neuville slower than Hanninen at 3rd split. He's going to need to do more if he wants to win this title

This rain if it gets heavier could cause problems for the later starters. Neuville could get lucky?

wow.... Rain and Ogier 4sec slower on 1st split
Great time from Hänninen. Meeke going well also. Østberg is slower than I expected.
Seb 5 down on Meeke at second split!!!

Ostberg went off at the start of the stage
Mikkelsen is losing a lot as well
Mikkelsen not so fast.
