Now lets see who will crash first, latvala or meeke.
Henning has broken rim for nothing at SS7
I wish to think they already spent this with the slow punctures.Quote:

That FX camera on Ogier's car.
Some huge stones for Meeke and Mikkelsen there
Lappi is doing great
What a battle !!!
Tänak, Meeke and Lappi in zero after SS8 and Latvala is 0,6 ahead of them :)
Lappi had a hairy moment at our place, scary
Neuville almost always faster as the rally progress.He has to work on it.
Woah Lappi !
If Lappi continues like this he will crash soon.
Two huge moments for Lappi. Calm down man
Jeez
'''tight lines'''

Urria 2 delayed a long time as firstly a spectator had some kind of heart issue which required an ambulance. Subsequently someone has fallen and seemingly broken their leg on the path between Hirvonen's jump and the spectator car park, which is a rough path through the trees. Paramedics gone to fine them, van parked on the stage.

Oof Teemu looking scruffy.
Tanak flatout till finish line, but Meeke a bit lift off at the end
Great day from Ott! I Expected like 10-15 seconds loss
There will be bigger time gaps on the Mickey mouse stage later than most of these special stages :D
Mikkelsen much happier and thanking the team for the improved i20.
Meeke takes Lappi
Last year at this point 7th place was 1 min down, this year 16s!
Competition level was awesome!Quote:

Breen and Mikkelsen also impressive today and especially compared to their team-leader.
Is the running order for tomorrow set now, or will the SSS later affect it?
It is set.
Which is great for Latvala cause he always looses time on Harju.
New Fiesta R5 has shown a little more promise today in the hands of Katsuta at least.
Biggest disappointment has been the pace of the Fords in general.
Greensmith relative to Suninen is probably about right for him on only his 2nd outing, but why they are detached from the others is strange.
Neuville this morning wasn’t great, but this afternoon been ok.
You could argue everybody else has been good..
Toyota is obviously fast here and also have a new engine upgrade. Hyundai invested a lot of development time/money on improving here, Citroen seemingly a bit as well and they were already very fast here last year (2nd).Quote:

Wilson seemed to talk about Evan being missed to help the others (I assume he meant with setup).
I think Suninen should be much faster if compare Greensmith. Last stage Suninen already lost from him. And we cant say that Greensmith is superfast in his second wrc competition. Whats wrong? Car Issues? Last year he was fastest Ford.
Huh, some starting order... 10-6, then WRC2.. then 5-1
