How many hard tyres are they allowed in total? I suspect they will need at least 8 hards for the two 53km stages. Softs would not work on that stage imo, expect if weather changes.
Riedemann red hot.
Edit: Fisher is the man on ss1.
PG did 70 WRC events and is double JWRC champion and a proven world class contender (at least by raw speed). Lappi is doing 3rd WRC event and 2nd out of his home country. Something would be very wrong with PG if he was not faster.Quote:

It's going to be interesting
And 7.5 sec. on the finish, and Mads is the new leader
Fantastic time by Ostberg, but Ogier still faster at first split. ;)
Wow, great pace by Ostberg
Mads is faster than Ogier in second split, Go Mads Go!!!
Ogier is five seconds slower as Mads on second split!!!
It's really a pity that not all top talents will get the possibility to show their full potential (I'm talking about a seat in one of the WRC factory teams). We all know that there are some faster drivers outside WRC teams and then there are those WRC drivers that should have retired ages ago but they've been given 2nd, 3rd or 4th chances... time after time. Life isn't fair.Quote:

From Mads twitter: "Finished SS2 fastest time so far. - Going good, pushing hard. Maybe too hard, had moments. Confident!"
Everything is OK when you are confident what are you doing!
Sordo woke up :)
I suppose there is 1-minute gap for WRC2 drivers. So Lappi lost some seconds in dust of the car before (stage 1), he should win that race if he want stay in Championship. Now, 2nd stage he push more I think.
Shame PG Andersson cannot score WRC-2 points.
Kubica have problems, uhhh
This the Ostberg I've been expecting to see.
He surely lost time towards the last part of the stage, but i don't know what happened?Quote:

Pärn retired on the first stage. Does he have superrally in jwrc?
No, 2 minutes for everyone till PG. Moura first to start in one minute gap.Quote:

Are you sure? I read about PG have not had extra minute and was a bit annoyed about it?Quote:

Excuse me, he was unsure if 2 minutes was enough and wanted to start earlier.Quote:

I think that the almost complete lack of commentary here on Kubica shows it is more interesting for everyone when he is fighting for overall victories in ERC.
Robert is doing great though, his times are excellent for a first gravel event even if I think he has a slight car advantage.
But now it could be problem with 2 minutes gap to Vallario ...Quote:
