Lukyanuk not happy after the first loop:
“We were eight seconds slower on the second stage than in the previous year. But what, I forgot how to drive or something? I don’t know. Something’s not working."

Why are there so many punctures in this rally? Campedelli, Erdi, Sesks, Arai, Stugemo (pictured), Llarena, Munster, Bernardi, Torn, Williams just on the first 3 stages.

Quite a few cuts taken here and Campedelli admitted his was caused this way.
damaged roll cage from that crash?! disappointed how weak that roll cage is.
This hairpin looks relatively easy, but Stajf wasn't the only one in trouble there:

Car fire for Von T & T !
Also accident for Rossetti and puncture for Crugnola.. carnage.
Another Polo on fire?!
No, sorry, apparently he drives Škoda this time.
A better video of Gryazin's crash:

Punctures for Crugnola, Lukyanuk and Arai...
Still no times after the first three yet ?
E.Here now.
Rossetti broke a rim with a cut and crashed the next corner.
Albert von Thurn und Taxis' car has caught fire (seems they managed to extinguish it). The stage got briefly stopped but has restarted.
Stajf with 2 punctures now... crazy.
Another for Stajf

SS7 - looks like a stage win for the new Fiesta R5. :)
Not so much drama so far on day 2 and no punctures for the top guys.
Ingram had made up a place but then lost two places on SS9 with two spins.
Campedelli's stage times and comments at the finish look much better today:
I tried to attack from the first corner, I push as I can.
When we are flatout on the downhill we are in the battle, but we struggle on the hairpins. We push as we can.
We tried to make some changes to the car and it's better and better. Now we are closer to our competitors. We need to develop the car as much as we can during this weekend.

Hopefully something that can be fixed with mapping and not a fundamental issue.
Hard to believe MSport would homologate a car which was worse than the previous one so perhaps they just rushed it out a bit before it was tested thoroughly for all types of roads and conditions. We didn’t see that many videos really..
A video from leg 1 (warning, near exclusively hairpins but a fuckton of different ones)

Crugnola is the man of the rally. he won most of the stages but puncture destroyed his rally
I've checked all Cempedelli's interviews after each stage; yesterday he was ''lost'', no feeling with the car whatsoever, than also a puncture, he admited that with the old Fiesta he would be in the fight for a victory. He had one test with the new car, which was in rain.....nothing to gain from that test. So yes, maybe M-Sport made a mistake to send him & Tania & new R5 version already in the competition, but the decision has been made and now it's just opportunity to pick-up as many as possible positive things and eliminate negative one(s).
I do not doubt in them, problem is that Basso will extend his lead in the championship....

Also 3 second fastest times so far today is progress.
Herczig: "I made a mistake on the start, after three or four kilometres I realised that something was not OK, the stage mode was not switched on."
Ingram now just 1s behind him.
One minute penalty for Luky......Cempedelli moved to the 2nd place! Not bad after all troubles.
Here it's pretty normal:

To me Polos seem to be the fastest out of the hairpin btw.
Habaj's crash looks unlucky, but on the other hand someone with more detailed notes could have "don't go wide" in notes? I think his co-driver says just "don't cut" on 0:47.
Also find it funny that I can understand almost all of Basso's italian notes and basically nothing of Rossetti's.
