I have to admit I hadn't really factored in the significance of this Breen vs Lefebvre battle. Something to watch for sure.
http://www.wrc.com/en/wrc/news/june-...7--12-12-.html
Who do people think will have the better rally? Lefebvre has had 3.5 gravel outings in the DS3 WRC (the .5 is Catalunya) and should be way more comfortable in the car. He's also got more experience of the Polish stages.
Breen has more all-round experience as a driver let's say, but if he's able to do better than Lefebvre that would be impressive.
I think Breen is progressing well in wrc car, but let's see. I would say it's 50/50.

Stinking hot here in Poland... So humid
.. and now begins the spam with pointless shakedown updates
Eight cars passed since the start, lots of delay.
So no point in commenting on the red carded rally having a 30 minute delay to start of shakedown then after just 7 cars the shakedown is stopped for another half hour due to spectator control problems. Hopefully Polish media help send out strong messages on spectator behaviour so no further problems over next 3 daysQuote:

I think Breen will show he is the better bet for the No2 spot next year. BUT in order to cement it he needs to show considerably better form than SebFeb!Quote:

You do know he's called Stephane, not Sebastien?Quote:

Ouch, that's quite bad accident, is he ok? right?
I don't think he will start... the car seems too much damaged.
So, no flower yet?
Definitely won't start. We were next to the house to pass the stage when he came rolling by! Will be in Joost his video that will be online in a few minutes :DQuote:

Typical high speed lift in "wrong" direction before next corner. Common in Finland as well.Quote:

Awesome jumps, great videos !
WRC2 cars get Poland SS1 underway... Evans fastest so far.
But we have to wait for all the WRC cars to go before the remaining WRC2 cars run...
Final WRC heat - Neuville beats Ogier who goes a bit wide on the last corner !
Neuville
Mikkelsen+02
Tanak+0.3
Ogier+0.4
Latvala+0.7
Lefebvre+0.9
Paddon+1.1
Sordo+1.5
Lappi somewhere among WRC cars again... let's see how long can he keep it on the road.Quote:

Ogier meanwhile is lucky to escape unscathed after drifting his Polo wide on the final left-hander and destroying a piece of stage furniture. "I didn't drive so well," he acknowledges.
Kruuda faster than Lappi by a tenth :)
