This car - very good and very well stabilized, it's just Meeke crusher! :D
Breen again,seems enough fast.

Well so far this year fast flowing gravel roads was where the C3 did best. Anyway on the Breen vids and on the end of some of the Mikkelsen ones the car is much less rear-happy and oversteering than on the first Mikkelsen one.

On some of the jumps yes, on lots of these test vids it's however the same jump over and over again from different angles as long as we don't see other car on same jump it's hard to judge can be the jump entry. But even the C4 use to land a bit more nose high than others.
I had a look on the Fafe jumps this year and all the differences seemed to be due to different entry (line/brakes/throttle) more than due to cars.

That's rally watching in Poland for you. On some rallies it looks more like 1980s Portugal.

Maybe it's just me, but I've seen a ton of testing vids and the cars/drivers seem to be getting quicker. Albeit a lot of the tests are carried out in Finland where the speeds are higher, but I also think driver confidence has also increased along with better developed cars. Keep the posts coming!
Sordo and Paddon
https://youtu.be/cvDCiUOUV7c
paddon tested in lithuania, fords in estonia, Toyota in Estonia. Why anybody is actually testing in Poland?
yes why?????????
Tbh the road and gravel characteristics for both M-Sport and Toyota tests looked much more like a test for Finland.
well Latvala kind of answers your question here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pDYpsHCZFk
I read it and i cant understand how is possible not to find the appropriate roads(fast and flowy) in poland for rally poland????????????it sounds like a joke.
what do you have against them testing here ? :p ....like said in estonian media and by Ogier, the characteristics of the roads here are like in finland but the surface is like in poland. finland has harder surface. And it is cheaper.
Because in Poland AFAIK most of gravel roads are in Rally Poland area, and some in Gdansk area, where was 2nd Poland rally championship event. Most of the roads in Poland are tarmac, and also most of events are on tarmac. I think there is a rule not to test in rally area before event, so actually tests in neighbour countries is one of the best and wise moves.
The Rally Championship of Poland is mostly played on asphalt but takes place in the midst of Poland due to the mountainous terrain (ERC in Rally Rzeszów). At present, it is only one rally in Gdansk, but not so long ago in Olsztyn - Rally Kormoran - additionality a smaller rally series called Szuter Cup is being played in Poland (http://szutercup.pl/). - sample onboard rallies that ended this weekend (beautiful rally stages)

To do this Rally Poland is played completely different than ever before - just look at the map from 2009 - Tors, Wydminy, Paprotki, Miłki - so finding the right road for the rally test, 40km from the rally database is no problem.
Another issue could be lack of test organizer team/crew, maybe there isn't any rally club in those areas, who could provide right conditions - close roads, coordinate spoters, find service place, etc. In Lithuania, in Zarasai district there is rally club, who one of main goals is rally tests organization - Vorobjovs racing had tests there recently, also D. Butvilas coaching some drivers from Poland there, time to time. For professional rally team is important to have all service they need, not just pick some road and drive around for few days.
