Puncture already in second stage of the season doesn't look promising. I would applaud him being 1-2 secs slower than fastest Rally2 cars and staying on podium more than this.
What’s the problem with ewrc, too much traffic?
He is not scoring points this weekend so doesn’t need a podium.. he may as well explore the limits of the new car with no pressure.Quote:

Ogier without a hybrid and such a time. Lol
It was not far off on asphalt 2 seasons ago but now in my opinion is far off on every surface as the other cars get better. Suninen 2 years ago had to push like hell with it to get competive times against Skodas.Quote:

LOUBET LIFTED BECAUSE OF PUNCTUREQuote:

Oliver is in Monte for one reson only, getting to know the new car. He will probably test different settings, to find the limit.
But it is always good with a stagewin under your belt!
FOURMAUX OFF BRIEFLY AT THE FINISH
Fourmaux says he "cannot do more" and he certainly showed that at the end of the stage, dropping off into a field!
What a lucky man kalle
Not only lucky. He managed his fault very good.Quote:

What the hell kalle did on this stage
Incredible time with the moment
By voice - is Tänak actually sick or something?
This stage seems to be "the moment of truth" for tire-ware.
and evans too
probably a great tyres management from kalle, keep them and give it all on the last one...
Evans bad luck arrives... :(
To make matters worse he punctured the soft tyreQuote:

Ogier has this rally in the bag
Evans puncture opened up even more interesting battle for the podium places
Now two stagewins...Quote:
