Breen would've had a great chance of a podium this rally considering Citroens reliability, instead they choose the useless Frenchman. Matton should sacked unless he's had orders from above

i can understand crashing/rolling when the driver is pushing....but Lefebvre was not even being competitive based on the splits

Lefebre is a joke, if Citroen were serious they would sack him and bring Mikkelsen in, this is a disgrace for the team and the sport.

That useless Frenchman was relatively often faster than Breen when both used R5 cars in ERC.

results in R5 mean nothing.

Its far easier to reach the limits in an R5 than a WRC, limitation in R5 is the car, limitation in WRC is the driver.

Sat 11:12 - Lefebvre update
More info in from Citroen: Lefebvre's roll has been downgraded to a slide. His car left the road and slipped down a slope.

So what, Breen has been comfortably the quicker in a wrc car for the last year or so. Every man and his dog knew Breen was the better bet to score pts here and in Monte, except Citroens bosses.

I don't see the issue. Why gamble away some points after losing everything twice in a row? He's being smart.

Mechanical question: is it possible that some cars lose more power than others in high altitude situations?

So it's reasonable to think that the Yaris is losing more time compared to everyone else in this situation. Latvala is definitely capable amd he's not distraught. This time it might be a matter of a power difference to the guys ahead.

It's a possibility but it can't be said for sure.

its not clear yet the reason they are loosing time.
Latvala is not the driver that is capable to be first on the road without loosing ages.
This only Loeb and Ogier have managed.
so we don't know how much Latvala, or the car have share at this.

He pushed in Monte and Sweden and we see what happen. Better he not pushing and not crashing here.

Actually he doing well yesterday too, if you remember he was on 3rd place before his car broke. He doing good rally, but fortune not on his side.

When was that? I can't remember.. I thought Lefebvre went straight from JERC to WRC2?

His Monte and Sweden accidents both happened when had a big lead and wasn't pushing so I'm not sure what your point is meant to be?

For example RMC 2015 or Ypres 2015. Also Janner but Lefebvre was very slow there at the beginning but in the end got farther than Breen. Got disqualified one stage before the end.
