[WRC] Rally Mexico 2023

And now they asked Evans can you fight for podium even though he is in third

Lol

EP really impressive so far. I hope he wins

It´s very nice to see Lappi happy.

Lappi said he felt he found how to drive fast here in 2020 but then had the fire. Seems he really had !

Problems for Oliver...

Edit: puncture... now lost more than one minute.
Edit 2: lost around 1 min 40 secs

Greensmith and Fourmaux can find to fight with each other, old good M-Sport times...

Is the roughness of this rally interesting for you? IMO they don't have enough top cars for this kind of event. I also don't understand why they give out points for top10, so you could get points by losing more than 20min.

They should've referred back to the old scoring point (up to 2010) where we got top 8 (10-8-6..etc.) with points, but then it would mess with their power stage points.

Very impressive job by Greensmith in the new car. Imagine if he had the seat time to really learn it (like Solberg's had)..

Yeah. For sure he´d been even more than a minute faster... :( ;)

No it isn’t interesting, every time this rally takes place I just hold my breath how many cars will survive

Also, the itinerary is basically the same every year

I would prefer Argentina instead of it or second winter rally somewhere
