mistake in the splits for Ostberg... they corrected it now.
Mads: "Good start of a mornining, but definitely can go faster" - stage end comment
On one hand I'm glad to see Latvala managing, but after dominating last year until his issues I'm still disappointed :(
Big Boss Tanak...
On your Knees dogs !!!!!
so road position matters as Tanak showed us.Quote:

Sadly the amount of close fights is rapidly diminishing. Might end with only 5-8 as real fights.
nobody fights for 5-8 position... you have to be retarded to risk everything for such little pointsQuote:

So after first stage with different starting order, the expected Toyota dominance is starting to show. (not diminishing that Tanak is much faster than his teammates and does excellent job).
Citroen is surprisingly fast.
Hyundai seems to have improved to Fiesta level (obviously for Neuville yesterday and today and Mikkelsen today road position is an issue), but that's still a way off Toyota.
Surprisingly Fiesta that was perhaps on Toyota level last year has not kept up. This would be the one to watch over next few stages for me.
And how did WRC TV producers reward Rovanpera for that.. 3 second drone shot and a stupid slow-mo. Pathetic.Quote:

Tänak and Rovanperä totally different level compare others. Can imagine Latvalas feeling in stage end. No can do.
Or perhaps it wasn't Fiesta that had pace. It was just TanakQuote:

Evans finished 2nd and Sunninen lost 2nd and dropped to 4th on last day? Where is Tanak in that?Quote:

Tänak "not push maximum" how much faster he can be? Heh heh
what happens with Ogier? good road position today,but not speed at all.
As usual, lying poker, so as not to encourage others to push harder :)Quote:
