Rallye Wrc Monte Carlo 2016

Crashouts happen in a pattern in this rally so far and this pattern is simple - all FORD WRC's crash out one by one. Kubica, Bertelli, Camilli, Tanak (managed to get back). So next crashouts will be - Bouffier, Tanak again, an finaly Ostberg.

hahaha me too.

Meeke has to increase the difference between him and Ogier, if it stays close, Ogier will beat him easily last day.

@SLefebvreRallye took a 20s penalty after losing time while a setup change

He'd be 2min 40sec faster.

Ogier was a monster in second part of this stage

Ogier 8 seconds slower than this morning.

Meeke 10.4 slower

Meeke 9.5 down after day 2. Mikelsen spun again

Tomorrow the monster stage will decide things early in the morning.

Yep, I think the 55km x 2 will see how things shape up.

Meeke Kris - Nagle Paul "There must me something in this stage that Seb knows! I think he lives about 3km from here, so I'm happy to give him this one. I have no answer to his time. Still a long way to go on this rally."

i like his honesty

So, just finished last work stuff and packed up everything, soon I'm about to start a long journey that will bring me tomorrow at 12:00 at SS11 plus 13
Will be there on sunday too. Finger crossed they will survive first two stages tomorow, can't wait to see this piece of history for the first time!

Meeke still has a chance with just that small time gap. I think Ogier will still prefer the points for the Championship than risking them all for the win...

Go for it Kris !

Both of because too early entry (and maybe to high speed), typical Monte accidents. Very slow, but very painful - for the confidence, ego and result...

I remember watching onboards from Ogier two years ago here in Monte, and he takes a lot of risks and has a lot more near misses (moments) compared to what youd see from Loeb, who was just unnaturally smooth all the time it seemed.

The problem the championship has had is that nobody has really been able to push Ogier hard in the last few years as Latvala has regressed since leaving Ford (imo). There was only really that spell a few years back when Jari had one run of good form towards the end of the season, and it appeared to "rattle" Seb and pushed him into mistakes in Germany and somewhere else iirc. So hopefully Meeke can keep up the pressure!

It's also worth remembering that the DS3 shouldn't be/isn't on a par with the VW or the new Hyundai. Both Meeke and Citreon have admitted that themselves but saying any real big developments on the car ceased 3-4yrs ago. So lovely driving by Meeke so far but he needs to keep his concentration up and his head clear

Ogier is not Loeb, You are completely right about that. So it would be very interesting to see how he table pressure over several events. He is much more emotional than Loeb, and is not so perfect in his driving style - could be exciting.

The DS3 WRC is a VERY good car, especially in these conditions, proven by both Loeb (last year) and Meeke (this year).

SS1 Onboards now on WRC+ incl. Meeke's spin ...

I broke an anti-roll bar in the SS7 and a 20-sec penalty. I lost even more time in this stage as I went off into a field. #WRC #MonteCarlo

So tomorrows stages are all dry ?

Reminds me of Breen at Jänner Rallye 2015 on first stage.

Totally agree - to go off in this corner is not good.

No, with stages 10/12 probably the road with the most snow / ice in it.
