Lindholm reported to be stuck on the road section trying to repair something, maybe alternator.

I must say I dont like today stages so much. For me they are too fast, too wide and too boring...

The PS is nice for me. For sure it's easier than the forest stages but for TV it's well selected I think.

Tänak again having issues with the gear lever. Loubet also reported issues with the transmissions.

It's a shame. I don't mind supporting a event financially but if we knew we would probably gave split our journey over two days.

Everyone is led to those, if you chose to go there or not you decide yourself.

It's an ok event, haven't watched all the onboards but Friday seemed more interesting.
Croatia has had better stages.

I think putting the spectator areas so far away just makes people go into the more narrow and dangerous parts

I would agree, next year it's Croatia again for me.

Second run again slower (slightly) than the first one despite few dirty places on this one.

Tänak must be relieved the gap was so big with Ogier

He is so slow today

When 2019 Tänak got title, then Neuville won the rally but all the attention went to Tänak.

Now, he again is going to win the rally but all attention goes to Rovanperä.

That's why winning the championship is more than winning a rally ;)

Loubet...

last year championship overall he was 13th, 2 points behind Solberg.

this year he is currently 11th, and again behind Solberg.. who is not doing full-season and doing it with Rally2 car.

He is so bad this year. Yes the puma is fragile and it’s also the reason for some of his bad results but overall he has made so many mistakes.

I’m still laughing at the fact that in the spring in one interview he said he has nothing to learn from Tänak

Depends who you are, I remember some comic drawing from Rally Alsace 2013, showing Ogier winning his first title but with all the medias focusing on Loeb retiring from WRC :D

Could be interresting to see what Solberg could do in that seat this season...
Or any other of the top6 in wrc2.

They interview Mouton and no word what’s the reason

I just can’t stand anymore this BS

Not having anything against fourmaux but I find it weird that they installed an onboard camera in his car while he's not running the WRC2 and in the same time they didn't install it in many actual WRC2 cars.

Very happy for Erik Cais to finally finish without punctures or crashes. Hopefully it will help him for securing the next season (and hopefully less chaotic program with less codrivers).

They said the issue of Loubet is broken front left driveshaft.

Loubet basically confirmed he will be at Msport next year

Somewhat agree that he'd better step back for a season or two. After all he was like four times off the road in this rally alone.

Hopefully Neuville will not get stuck to this one tricky corner at the end section...
