Wondering how big is the cleaning difference between starting first and second and third? Clearly not as big as in poland or Latvia, but wondering how adequately comparable will be pace of Evans Neuville and Tänak be?

It is quite minimal effect in Finland but there is some. Depending on the stages also of course. I remember Oittila stage having a quite a loose part one year when Tänak won but that was only like for 5kms or something.

Neuville and Taka
Neuville told DF he hadn't driven on the Hyundai test road in Finland since it was frozen pre-Sweden.
This is strange. He and the i20 struggled on fast gravel for years, so Hyundai move their base to Finland to allow more testing and then dont use it !
