indeed I switched to german which i speak somewhat, it's just one commentator who doesn't feel the need to fill every microsecond. it requires a bit of concentration to follow him for now but maybe my german will get better :DQuote:

Lappi with is more aggressive driving style maybe have overcooked tires
edit: Lappi's car rear was also off the road similar to Neuville. Lucky to get away without damage. This luck will not stay too long with that style I guess.
Having by far the longest stage on Day 1 is harsh on those leading the Championship and so opening the road. They have no chance of the rally win already.
or exactly opposite - helping. If Rovanperä can not win here because of really bad road position, then his competitors for the title can not get larger points (for win), because Ogier takes them himself.Quote:

Tänak Ott - Järveoja Martin
"It is a challenge. A massive struggle and a massive loss. Like driving a tow truck, such inertia in the rear."
There is no reason to compare uncomparable situations. Ogier mastered it, that for sure.Quote:
