"Really good loop. I'm happy with what I've done."

So Ogier also 'happy' with his slower time, knowing when he has to just drive for the points.

Evans in his R5 matching Camilli's times. :D

He did in SS9 but lost another 2 minutes to other WRC2 drivers in SS10.

I think Camilli is doing fine. He can't afford to have problems again, so he's taking it slow and safe, which is what he has to do. Neuville will get ahead, but he still can take Solberg and keep decent 8th place.

edit: 9th place, forgot Ligato...

Wilson let go two men who have WRC level experience and brings in one that clearly needs it.

It was a gamble and I guess everybody now knows Camilli isn't new Ogier, but the current goal is probably getting through the contract with the least possible amount of embarrassment:).

Another stage win for Elfyn Evans in the WRC2 category through SS12.

Yes but the point was that winning a stage by few seconds means nothing when You loose minutes elsewhere. In this moment Evans is nearly 50 minutes down and nobody in front needs to care about him. He is for sure by far the best driver of those who came to Argentina but sadly what we can see now from him says nothing either about him or others.
