The flat out section was so long I doubt exit speed mattered.Quote:

Sunninen deserved to be at the podium, but he’ll get there, sooner than later. Amazing races from Huttunen and Ciamin. Lots of talented young guys showing there’s a bright future for WRC. The icing on the cake: Neuville and Ogier are tied, so we’re back to start line with only 4 events to go!
except if they were for many secs at limiter with top gear,exit speed from previous corner matters.Quote:

What a rally! I could not follow it that closely as I was visiting another rally event but I tried at least on my phone. I have always been pretty critical about Lappi but what he achieved this weekend is kind of historical achievement. Maybe Jonkka can help with statistics who needed how many events in top tier car to achieve first victory?
And a another special achievement for me is Huttunen's victory considering his experience. Happy for Juho Jäninnen as well.
Overall it looks really good for Finnish rally future!
Great result for Lappi. He's quick! Great results for Evans and Hanninen as well. Hope the Toyota boys continue doing well moving forward. The battle between Ogier, Nueville, Sordo and Latvala in Germany will be epic. Lappi showerd good pace last year in WRC2, but he's not a tarmac guy.
He was second on Corsica 2015.Quote:
