Latvala Is the last person I expected to be at the top of this list :D it shows he's starting to find true speed again, but that he's just run out of luck.Quote:

Sordo put in a mega drive this weekend, for sure. To be fair, I tend to rate Sordo rather lowly, and I frequently look at him as an eternal has been with no further potential, but every single time he's in that i20 he surprises me.Quote:

As "gifted" as this win was, I've gained a lot of respect for him after today. I hope he stays for a few more years, he's still got some nice potential (and is such a likeable guy too!)
just watched Tanak onboard - problems starts from 0:38.5. After a right corner overcrest, and 'problem' corner was first proper corner which require heavy turning. Why that broke on 38.5 - i HAVE NO IDEA! Very strange
Sordo cup... That broken piece should belong to Tanak

Speed isn't a problem, the speed is there. It's the consistency that's lacking, and troubles and crashes that's too muchQuote:

I'm sorry, but when did Lappi win with Citroen this year, or are you including the WRC 2/Pro Category?Quote:

i wonder what the toyota bosses think of makinen's choise of drivers.
meeke and latvala both have the same problem. they can't go fast without crashing into things. they can go 100%, win sometimes but crash mostly. or they can go 90% and be far of the pace. neither of them have the ability to drive at 95% and be fast without crashing like ogier.Quote:

eib1 has posted the number of stage wins here, i've included the top 3 which makes the dominant speed of the toyota even more clear. all 3 of toyota drivers are at the top. even latvala and meeke outscore neuville and ogier.
Quote:
Tanak - 45
Meeke - 35
Latvala - 22
Neuville - 22
Ogier - 19
Evans - 17
Sordo - 14
Mikkelsen - 14
Loeb - 13
Suninen - 12
Lappi - 11
Toyota - 102
Hyundai - 63
Ford - 29
Citroen - 30

Tanak:
Thank you @MSportLtd for this message ! We still have 6 more rallies to go and we will fight for these 6 victories really hard ! 😎💪
Watched Tänak's onboard from powerstage and its quite interesting what they talked right after the spin. Tänak asked Martin to contact team to get help with the powersteering issue. Then Martin pressed some buttons ( I guess to make the call) and then they both explained to someone that it is the same powersteering issue that Jari had.
Are they allowed to talk with the team while driving in the stage?
One likeable thing I heard from onboard was that Martin offered help to pull handbrake and afterwards in hairpins Ott said just word yes and Martin pulled handbrake. Its just small little thing, but for me it shows that codriver needs to be ready to multitask when necessary.

Aren´t you following WRC? Only conclusion I can come up to, after you´re claiming you wouldn´t expect JML to be on that list. He´s been fast all the time.Quote:

You are correct, but doing Marcos Ramirez a disservice.Quote:
