50% chance of rain tomorrow.
But only a tiny few areas of Oserian that has black cotton (if any), so not much chance of “proper safari” mud.
Malewa has one small mud hole that might be wet too, but otherwise that and Hell’s Gate it is loose and gravelly, similar to Loldia.

Thunderstorms developing in the afternoon. High 25°C. Winds ENE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 50%.
[QUOTE=Morte66;1343181]I suppose Toyota's ideal result tomorrow would be:
- Evans takes 12 Sunday points for their WDC hopes
- Rovanpera or Katsuta come second on Sunday points for the WCC
- Rovanpera and Katsuta take overall 1/2 on the podium for the marketing people
These are compatible.
Of course Fourmaux, Neuville and Tanak may have something to say.[/QUOTE
To be honest, I bet on Neuville or Tanak tomorrow, If their car won't break up. (They really have to take points for manu also) Kalle won't be pushing so much, Taka too and Elfyn isn't that quick by mi opinion.
Damn I can't believe I'm saying it and it has nothing to do with the rain but I miss that Toyota livery.Quote:

I find it extremely funny how Fourmaux is taking second podium and massive points by essentially driving around 5th place in speed on all his rallies.
That said steady approach was exactly what he was missing until this year. Even as late as last year he did that crash in Sardinia + Japan. Cheers to him if he now learned driving at 90% and actually getting results.
It strikes me that Dani Sordo made a pretty decent career out of that. It's not to be sniffed at.Quote:

Puncture for Lappi and he has only one spare
Don't get how Hyundai allows to make these joke decisions to take only 1 spare.. in Kenya!
Tänak has a time penalty?
Just noticed that too! Anyone know what happened?
is the penalty belong to Sunday?
Tanak late into parc ferme last night - TC13C
Huyndai start to be a joke team😕Quote:

It’s a horrible stage, the worst of the rally.Quote:

Tanak as well with only one spare, but we are used to see that in his caseQuote:

Tanak very fast in there
Evans even faster, it will be close battle with Neuville and Tanak for sunday points, unless Kalle will do some strike again
So Tänaks penalty means he won’t get any points today?
.Everything has gone as bad as it could for him in this rally
Is that taken into account? I mean the penalty, because it was from last night?Quote:

I saw that as well, that is why i was wondering. Seems unfair to take that into account for today?
It shows he has a penalty but not where.Quote:

Yeah thanks. WRC.com indeed shows it’s from TC13 so it won’t affect todayQuote:

3.3.2 For the World Rally Championships for Manufacturers,

general classification of Sunday only, comprising the part
from the first time control after the overnight regroup up to
and including the final time control of the competition element
of the rally (with all time penalties accrued in this part of the
competition).
I mean technically penalties are in a separate part of overall, not added to a stage time, so penalty from last night will only affect points for Thursday-Saturday.Quote:

Emm, no.. we have some reg clash here. If Tanak was faster than Serderidis after Saturday, get 2pts for P9 and got penalty at tc13c it will add 'after ss14' at Sunday. Not affect saturday overall and not affect supersunday��Quote:

Yes it’s the most unlike Safari stage they have, pretty rubbish for the power stage.Quote:
