Have wondered for quite a while now if some of the c3's tarmac ability may have been comprised to make more for a more driveable car on gravel certainly looks it at moment

Makinen just alluded to that indirectly. It's no longer a touring car ;)

As a Meeke fan, gutted :mad:

But looking at his pace if he keeps it on the tar he will move up steadily. On a positive note the pace is there once again!

Looks like a real interesting one, my money is now on Tanak. Evans and Sordo may have thoughts of a win also

Not so stupid when there are only two pure tarmac events.

pity they didn't think of that 3 years ago

I thought the same thing a year ago but was assured by the expert that it wouldn't.

From all accounts it has been suspension geometry and diff changes that have help the handling so could it effect the setup?

Newton's 3rd law of physics comes to mind. Just a thought and hopefully someone with a bit more knowledge than me can give there thoughts on it.

If that happens it means that the person who planned the start times did a shitty job or that there are serious issues on the route. Please educate yourself about what is the zero car for. It's not for racing, period.
