Oliver at finish in 4th (by current state), well done!
Great to see Chris Ingram getting some coverage. Good result for him.
Hmm, based on ewrc: Ronvaperä got some penalty "0:30 - Late (3 min) at TC"
But after previous rule-games, is the penalty now added to PS time or how does it work?
Rule says that penalty accrued on PS is added to final time on PS. Rovanpera's penalty came from time control 19, so it's not on this stage.Quote:

huuh, done for Tänak! epic :)
Awesome drive by Evans on PowerStage as well - one more spare, more used tired compared to Rovanperä and only 1.1sec lost.
Should’ve picked him as the winner, massive congrats, good to see him take back to back wins!
Will this 30 seconds affect Rov's PS result?? so no points for RovQuote:

Fourmaux crash caused the previous stage to be late for WRC2 runners so they couldn't be in time for the power stage start.Quote:

Shame the car wasnt on this level already beginning of the season, would have been good title fight.
Really pleased for Moncet... time to give him the job at Hyundai full-time.
Really impressive form from Tanak…I will be interested to see if Neuville can respond over the rest of the season. Looks from the outside like a smart move from Hyundai to dial a bit of understeer into the car of Oliver to keep the rear more stable, no mistakes and a good result..
Toyota, not much to say, Evans and Lappi did a good job and Rovanpera just one of those things.
MSport. This must be rock bottom, in some respects worse than last year. At least last year the car was slow, this car is decent but the drivers are throwing it at the scenery every chance they get. I hope for their sake things get better in Greece
Really good from Tänak, not totally happy with car, but it's enough to win.
Oliver did a really good job, i didn't think he could do this in ypres after his finland-project.
Neuville, better not to say anything, some of his fanboys got butthurt...
Toyota did a good enough job.
Msport, where to start?
Catastropic is not word enough.
What to do rest of season? This joke has to end, i will say that most of former WRC and R5 drivers from the last years will do a better job.

Good drive by Tanak, not spectacular but really efficient and he is now 1 down from tying Latvala and Mikkola for top 10 wins all-Time; still a bit of a pity for Evans who could have gain some confidence with a win. Quite surprising that they were only 2 rally winners this season since Loeb’s MC victory.
Lappi did the job, not spectacular also but a good result that may change his future that was bleak before. Let’s see what he can do in Greece.
Also good job for Solberg, exactly what he needed and a bit of a surprise as, even if he is not bad on tarmac, it was not the best place for this and, as for Lappi, it could save his next season.
About Fourmaux, I don’t understand what they did; if he was sick, it is a complete non-sense to have tried to catch 4th, he should just have survived and finished for 5th. Team orders from M-Sport to catch 4th? Again time lost for him, he will have again to regain confidence in Acropolis. I told before that M-Sport should have sidelined him for one rally earlier in the season to try to make him understand, now all sounds lost for him. Acropolis sounds complicated to find a driver but they should think about this in NZ or Catalunya.
some one can explain how fia allow to action like this when they telling that timer was not calibrated but the man jus blocking time wich is runing all time ?Attachment 2304 https://www.part.lt/img/c3bc66fea570...da08269963.png
Huge bravo to Hyundai for building a car that won two consecutive events!!!
& finally someone other than Neuville won with it on Tarmac, almost 3 years to the day since I saw them win in Deutschland.Quote:

Had to check this. It is actually the first time ever someone else than Neuville won on tramac with it.Quote:

At the same time finishing 1:40 behind Lappi shows how this speed is not enough to help Hyundai in manu champ.
Imo best for both would be to run Solberg in 4th car. They have 2 drivers already in the team to run in 3rd.
Sad for Thierry but well done to Ott and the Team…Quote:

Quite special. Lots is probably wrong in that team.Quote:

To complete the M-Sport disaster, 4th time in a row that Katsuta finishes above the best M-Sport driver; and 6 out of 9 since the beginning of the season.
Talking about invisible people in RC2 you have above all Bulacia. Somehow understandable given his season so far and crash in first stage of the testing rally.
"Hats off!"Quote:
