So rumor from service is that Sordo really feeling good with the new diff in the car.. maybe this explains his pace. Will be interesting to see Sordo in the future.
Stopped and lost almost 10 minutes, but completed the stage. Now at the start of SS 9...Quote:

Btw. Bergkvist did a good time on SS8. Glad for him.
Meeke looks really focussed today.
Tanak on pace so brakes seem ok.
JML faster than Meeke. Tire choice coming into play. Nueville with all mediums for the long stage will be interesting. He has two spares so it's a good thing, but he could lose more time against Seb O.
To me JML was about 3,0 + secs faster then Kris.
13:43 for JML
Time differences are tiny so far today.
Mads very good on the splits.
Even more tactics from Huyndai. Loeb late.
If it continues like this, Ogier will soon be first on the road 😁
When you try to beat the system - system can beat you mr. Ogier!
;)
Boys with 5 mediums could struggle?
Loeb must interfere with life on Ogier...
How is this start order shuffling benefiting Hyundai ?
Less cars before Ogier, but the same amount before Neuville. Less road cleaning, slower road.Quote:

No...this is basic rules in rallying. If you arrive late in TC, you start later, but you can be only late for 30(?) minutes, otherwise you're excluded. And obviously you get a time penalty for being late in TC. But it doesn't make a difference for these guys, having lost so much already.Quote:

I said it already when Ogier did it in Sweden that it's crap and they should somehow try to prevent this before it gets crazy....imagine if 2-3 other teams were doing it with their cars at the same time. Organizers can throw schedule out of the window.Quote:

Till Sweden2018 - no, after - yes. Some one smartass broke unwritten rule.Quote:

This comes from Sweden 2019, but also from Ogier.Quote:

I understand doing this to benefit yourself (like Ogier did), but doing it to disadvantage an opponent of your team-mate is another level.
Manufacturers is more important, so okQuote:
