Wow, what a job by Ogier in the last few sectors...
Puncture got him

how come Ogier and Neuville always get these results?
just unbelievable
Every year I really love to spectate the footage el Condor. What a stage it is!
Meeke's 10s penalty cost him in the end.
Ogier gets 20 points from here
Ogier and Shitroen's crying worked in the end.
neuville not going for it, it seems.
ANOTHER puncture from Toyota...
Any of the top teams would probably be pushing for penalties in the same position. After all Neuville also mentioned he would have wanted Tanak to be penalized if he was still in the running by the end of the day.Quote:

Adamo getting results now.
Annoying result for Toyota yet again, when they had the speed. Too many issues with the car and punctures this season. It's not good enough
Meeke has maybe 10 punctures this year already.. not normal.Quote:

The thing I want most from Meeke this year is for him to keep his job, and so far so good. I think he was actually quite lucky this rally, because the problems mostly happened near the end of stages and the end of loops; and on another day a less sensible official could have given a 30 second penalty.
Mikkelsen: well done, deserved a clean run and did well when he got it.
Hyundai: good tactics, good luck, great result, congratulations.
since when having a good car that does not break is luck ?Quote:

In terms of performace Toyota was seemingly fastestest on all first runs of stages and Citroen (Ogier) slowest. In second runs things seemed to turn around with Ogier and Hyundais faster.
Ogier shows why he is multiple champ, will do anything to win and can push over the top when it matters.
On a side note it almost looks like Mikkelsen is forbidden to push on PS, certainly in Sweden he was and here he probably was advised to keep it steady. From team view it certainly makes sense, more than Meeke and Latvala taking points off Tanak.
if you want to use abbreviations of the names rally of drivers like some low life trash eating F1 fan you should go there....Quote:

Toyotas seem to have reliability issues, can't deny it at this point, but maybe it comes as a disadvantage of squeezing out every bit of performance, because it really looks like it is the best performing car.
Sad for Tannak, this is getting annoying.
Really glad that Meek is doing a good job, I imagine he must think the previous year was really hell according to now. I'm glad he got the opportunity to show that he has great speed.
Great job by Ogier on PS. Also it seemed that after he got his power steering back and was fighting his lost time back he managed to squeeze more out of that Citroen, which is a weird car.
Also some really scary crashes in this rally...
no, too trashy.Quote:

For tech guys, at 10:40 on Saturday highlights Evans is using Inmarsat IsatPhone 2 (https://www.inmarsat.com/isatphone/) to call the team after crashing.
Didn't look like Tanak had any satphone with him?
Apparently Ford does not have radios this year. Toyota does.Quote:

Well satphones work even when the plane(relay) is not up and also when the car does not have power. So at this point MSport approach was better, as Tanak seemingly wasn't able to talk with the team after the crash. EDIT: car stopped.
I guess mostly they just use cellphones for this, but not much coverage up the hill in argentina.
Where did he crash?Quote:
