Obviously there are also updates that don't require a joker in addition to that. Rossel said that there should be updates in the spring, and they already had development tests this year.Quote:

Stream dead again
Lets hope that the other Rally 2s use their jokers well and gain some performance because if not it will be a Skoda cup until the Gr Yaris Rally 2 is readyQuote:

Tänak lost powersteering after 3km, and said after finish line "how hard it is" (in Estonian language we need beep-machine for the phrase)
Need to say that quite impressive time without powersteering.
Powersteering, like all new technology, can be a little tricky to do right. I'm sure Ford can sort it out by mid-season
Someone still saying that we don’t need midday service?
Fourth year in a row 0 points from Monte
It will be very long, long season for Tänak! It´s a pity that M-Sport is so bad.
I mean Fords powersteering going out 10 times in last 2 seasons... They kinda deserve no points. Sucks for Ott thoQuote:

If they can't repair it I think Ott will retire. Losing 3min per stage (like Loubet) will drop him around 20th place.
The same was written last year after Croatia. Did he win almost all events? Far from itQuote:

Maybe they got it solved. I really hope
No service again? Rubbish

The trends is to Toyota 1-2-3.
If Tänak drives without powersteering, I think he will be still faster than Serdenidis.
That and they're based it Monaco... really hope they bring back mid-day service next year, at least for one day and bring Valance or any other place high in the alps use as rally base.Quote:

Without this possibility no-team-changers have quite huge advantage. This all just increases the current situation when Toyota is dominating.Quote:

Tänak heading to the next stage but the road which leads to the stage also leads to Monaco service park. So we will see if he actually goes to the stage or comes to service park
I personally think he will try to survive the next stage and maybe to fix it somehow at tyre change area
I wasn't being seriousQuote:

As for the rally they should have the base and stages somewere else, Thursday night Monaco start and a couple night stages sure, then Sunday PS and ceremonial finish back to Monaco, Friday and Saturday can be in some better place for sure.
Sarcasm is a delicate art. /s -tag helps.Quote:

Our team snapped Ott Tanak and Martin Jarveoja working on their wounded Ford Puma Rally1 - can they do the unthinkable and make a repair?
