i want to see onboard of Tänaks puncture causing moment.
Meeke admitted yesterday it was his fault, Latvala did the same today. But still strange they all had punctures in Monte and now here too. Fortunately for them next tarmac rally is far away :D
But yeah champsionship wise Ott now lost chunk of points but still all good and the second half of season is his better side.
And Citroen will be even more gutted they havent been up there to take full advantage.
if all the three drivers has same points, who will start first in the next rally?
Ogier bcause he has two wins
Citroens with very good first split
Michel XIV @rockollector
The last time Evans had an 11,5 seconds lead with 3 stages to go was Argentina 2017. We all know how that went.
5th still possible for Tänak, 40 sec from Suninen
Certainly something Toyota will have a look at surely. They might be the drivers fault here (but in Monte it wasn't the case), and I just think maybe the Toyota is a bit weaker in that department (as in, it'll take a bit less to puncture a tyre than other teams?).
Meeke and Jari admitted their mistakes and maybe Tanak's was his own as well, but all 3 drivers getting punctures on two consecutive tarmac rallies is certainly an interesting coincidence :D.
Tanak and Meeke had the potential speed wise to take big points this weekend though, whereas Latvala probably wouldn't have. That is what will piss Makinen off, this should've been a big haul of pts for Toyota given the cars strength and the drivers speed. Big let off for Hyundai
ogier flying!!!
Happens, Hyundai had all the "potential" in Mexico, and ended with one 4th place.
Let's hope Sordo doesn't bend under Ogier's pressure.
hohoho that Neuville 1st split :)
i think Ogier will get him anyway considering the speedon this stage
If Thierry wants to make a statement this would be the time to do it....
Ogier already 8 sec up on Sordo in second split
it seems Citroen has told Lappi to up the speed not letting Tänak pass.
Amazing this stage for Ogier compared to his speed on the others.
cmon ott show some more speed, you have to get Lappi
shit, evans split not good
Neuville is coming for Evans.
Ogier will pass Sordo
damn this is hard for Tänak, Neuville goes into the lead and Ogier up to third
Strange pace from Sordo, given he won first pass.
Evans +8 to Neuville in 4th split
Go on Thierry!
Dani Sordo, you lost a lot of time, what happened ? 'The others drove faster !' :D
amazing stage Neuville, hats off!
ouuuu Neuville win a stage!!!
Wow, Neuville. Respect.
I guess the question if Neuville will try to win is answered.:-D
great second part of the stage from Ott, dunno what happened in the beginning
Shiiiiiiiiit its gone.
