today it wasn't matter of choice, that he couldn't match Meekes pace.

Gearbox change for Ott. Reverts to gravel gearbox.
Pretty much out of the contention
Yeah. He says it definitely won’t make things better. What a shame

Looks like Hänninen would quite like to keep his drive for next year.
Kopecky will be level with Camilli when they give back the 90s he lost yesterday in Sederidis' dust.
Not sure what Clark is on about. All the failures except yesterday's have been fundamentally electrical problems. e.g. in Poland I believe the throttle position sensor was stuck open, so the engine was doing max revs and ruined the clutch. Finland the ECU died in the middle of a gentle left hand corner.
I don't see how anybody can drive a car so hard that it breaks the electrics and not the mechanicals.
So msport has not brought a spare asphalt gearbox to an asphalt rally? Or do they have one, but keep it for ogier?

Impressive Lappi on this stage.. matching local super-experienced guy Sordo.
Neuville is scaring me. He was pushing way too hard, pulling the handbrake on smooth corners and going waaaaay too close to the walls and barriers. I felt this same way seeing Meeke's pace on the power stage in Mexico: his speed isn't sustainable.

Meeke very fast 2nd split
Meeke not in containment mode. Very fast at 2nd split

Good job Tanak with the gravel 'box... goes ahead of Ogier.
Being in front of Neuville is not enough. What's the point of finishing 7th in front of Neuville 8th for example? Neuville gets the Power Stage better than Ogier, and they are both to square one. So, Ogier is getting bitten very very badly, it shows on his face.
