Gutted for Kris. But like he and Seb said - a long way to go. There was a real wild section on the onboard and a big cut. Wonder if he picked it up there...

After 2 stages, all is back to normal in the WRC world. 3 guys fighting for the win and the others watching the fight from a respectable distance.

Shame for meeke! It's good though that he and Latvala were quite equal on this one. Tanak is still undisputably Superman.

And sure enough this is Pontus' debut but he's barely faster than Ciamin :(

Oh please...down boy... Pontus could push MUCH harder, hopefully we will se some more pace this weekend, but
- first time in the car
- only been to Monte once before
- less mileage in the car than anyone else in the WRC-field
- its fucking MONTE, nightmare to debut on
- night stage..on ice.
- With Suninen out its even more important that he stays within striking distance of the places 5-10 to get points for M-sport.

I doubt they were equal before Meeke punctured. Anyone know the splits up to 12km?

Split 4: JML quicker than Meeke by 0.5s

After that Meeke had the puncture

1 split before Meeke faster by 2 sec so might have been just before the next split as well.
Anyway, quite equal.

3 are enough for a good season.

Stupid question, but I haven't been following the rules changes lately:

Has the starting order rules remained the same as last year or do the Rally2 guys now start in front again?

Meeke said at end of stage puncture warning light on with around 9km left of stage, so just over half way

This is the first time I've heard they have tyre pressure sensors.

So if they do, why are some still checking the pressures manually?

Great time by De Mevius.

Tidemand is doing just fine. Stage times don't matter right now. He should keep it on the road and try to push in "safe" stages.

Are you sure about that :)

Katsuta has been absolutely nowhere close to being fast on both stages.

Why do you think Ogier isn't in that car? Oh sure, Nandan felt he was too expensive (and I'm the tooth fairy)

New season started as last one finished. Tänak fastest, Mikkelsen slowest,Ogier rock solid, everyone fighting in the forum. Gotta love it.

If you look at the results after 2 stage, it only separates 14.4 seconds between numbers 4 and 9 so then everyone after no. 3 must be crap

Don't know if they have tyre pressure sensors that measure the psi, maybe just a warning light that tells them they have a puncture.

Loeb can be excused. Meeke too clearly.

Yes. Seeing it now Ogier did the only smart thing - stay the hell away from Hyundai. I actually think the i20 can ruin Mikkelsens career. Cant see anyone signing him next year if he keeps going like he did last year. A shame. The guy has proven to be a top driver in the right car.

P1 drivers re-starting on Saturday and/or Sunday under WRC Art. 46, shall on all subsequent days start
as a merged group before the other P1 drivers in the reverse order of their position in the classification.

With nearly 1 and a half years experience with this car, 6 full WRC seasons with top notch machinery, he still is slower than a pensioner who just came back from Dakar and only drove the car on a single day before the rally.

If you feel it's an acceptable performance, then it means that we just see things very differently.
