Carnage on this stage
McErlean, Sesks, Munster, Solberg, Korhonen so far
edit - now Heikkila as well
SS2 has bitten HARD
Oliver at finish, now. Seems he just got frustraded just after going off. Car working quit ok, Oliver said.
Must be the worst stage for one Team ever. Unbelievable.

If he hurt his back, then it would be logical to retire and get it checked and fixed before next rallies and Finland flying festival
An event to forget for MSport - Loubet with the crash on recce as well!
Hopefully Serderidis keeps it going.
Who?Quote:

Also Toyota at Acropolis 1992 had Alen and Schwarz crashing in the same corner, with Sainz who crashed few stages earlier.Quote:

Even worst : In 1974, locked in a big fight for the WRC with Lancia, Fiat enters 7 (!) 124 Abarth cars for the San Remo Rally (against 3 Lancias) - 4 of them crash on the very first stage ! Only 1 to finish and title lost ...Quote:

So it seems it's not a first or worst by a Team in one stage. And at least M-Sport has the excuse of young drivers.
A valid excuse, as their old driver hasn't crashes yet.Quote:

Like Tänak said after Portugal, there no guarantee that he will find the same sweet spot with the setup and sad reality is he hasn’t.
Impressive Taka, taking advantage of his road position but Fourmaux coming faster !
It looks like once again the driving doesn't really matter, mostly just road position.
Not much road difference for the mid-runners but Tanak lost 6sQuote:

You miss two stages because you're busy and suddenly total carnage.
Maybe people are on the stages watching the cars :)Quote:

If Serderidis doesn't get into the top 10, does that mean M-Sport's streak of 300+ consecutive points finishes since 2002 is terminated?
Serderidis(Sesks and Katsuta also) isn't scoring manu's points and top10 overall doesn't matter..
(Top10 in RC1/rally1 cars driving for manu's points matter)
Munster or McErlean just has to cross finishline on Sunday to continue that..
Neuville 4H 1S
Evans 5H
Tanak 5H
Fourmaux 5H
Rovanpera 3H 2S
Ogier 3H 2S
Katsuta 4H 1S
Pajari 5H
Tänak is going to go off/crash if he continues like this, it looks too quick (if there’s such a thing).
That middle tight part was crazy from Tänak
So crazy, I thought he was going to go off.Quote:

It's definitely about driving now (and tyres).Quote:

Either way, it‘s fantastic.
Now a Hyundai 1-2-3 and just what they need. But can they maintain it...
This ss2/ss5 is amazing stage
Eddie you always call it, please do not write anything about Hyundai being on TOP :DDDQuote:
