Laughing out loud at the podium mix-up… “no no, you did the team orders wrong lads”… :laugh:
No, 2nd.Quote:

Breen maybe knew the time of Kalle, but there is no way he knew the time of Neuville, so he couldn't knowQuote:

I'm really glad for Malcom. He knew what he want (Tänak back to the team), he did it - he found the way, and it already delivered. Well done, congrats!
Hyundai suddenly using team orders, but only when it benefits Neuville. Hypocrisy lol.
Fucking hilarious that it didn't work out tho
1. They played UK anthem for winning manufacturer (Ford), but Ford is actually USA based manufacturer. So it was UK Anthem because in this case the Manufacturer is M-Sport and not Ford.
2. Oliver Solberg said, that this is actually his second win, not first. That is truth, because he was fastest R5 in WRC Estonia 2020, just did not start in WRC2, but in WRC3, which both was same R5 cars in 2020.
And I was thinking, where the Breen laughter from one stage end can be re-used. Now, Breen can re-use it :)
If M-Sport can solve the problems and Puma will be reliable Tänak will be impossible to beat. Great job!
Same thing, thought He’d win but was concerned he’d have some technical issues, glad justice was served at the end, bring on Mexico!Quote:

Good to see Breen back to driving well.
Surprised that Rovanpera wasn’t faster, Toyota wasn’t as fast as I thought.
Hyundai was quick (and it sounds the best by a long way too)
Good rally.
Emil Lindholm took second place on PS in Rally 2
2 elite talents have driven the Puma, the first one won first time out, the other on the second chance given... Just gonna leave that here... As for the anthem, Ford's WRC entries have historically been UK registered and all their wins have been accompanied by "God save the Queen" (now King). On the other hand, Hyundai have a great tendency to trip amongst themselves. Good for Breen, though. He really messed up last year, and coming back from that is a confidence boost.Onwards and upwards!

Shame Tanak hasn't got quality team mate to help him and take points of others
Both wilson, and RB, knows his number and that he is available.Quote:

Congrats to Tanak,well deserved win,even he wasnt 100% with the car,but even main competitors were the same.
Finally Pellier lost to Creighton for 0,6
I wouldn't say that he did bad rally, friday close to Kalle, fastest on saturday and only small mistake at powerstage.Quote:

Note that Østberg went on to win WRC2 title that year, while Huttunen won WRC3 title.
Anyway again note that it is two and a half year since he won something. He got offer for full season with Skoda/Toksport in 2021, instead it was two years of mess.
Cyril to Breen:”take the penalty and let Thierry through”

You are quite right, and I hope to see Sébastien Loeb back in the Puma soon…Quote:

Imho opinion, the most enjoyable rally since MC last year, great result for both M-Sport & Hyundai, think this will be (easily) the closest championship since Covid began, really looking forward to the rest of 2023!
Do we like Hyundai team-decisions or not, we need to admit, that the new boss in the house at least have balls to make decisions.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing.Quote:

This was a no-brainer. Even Moncet would have done it. One is a championship contender, other is a part-timer.Quote:

Just one stage win but doesn’t matter, he has to do like Ogier did in 2017, to be very very consistent, Ogier only got two victories but still won the title.
