Tanak 2017 vs 2014 at same spot.
https://www.ewrc-results.com/video/2...ninpohja-2017/
Why is it a poor performance you wisekid? Maybe he's driving better than ever and is this the maximum for this weekend, that's not a poor performance. Like the most people are seeing; it's the car that isn't suit for these roads, exactly like last year. So please stop with this nonsense... In Germany he will be there normalwise in front for the win. He's the first driver that really is taking some presure for the championship the whole season on Ogier after 4 years of can i say dominated years of the Frenchman.
Could it have been a gearbox problem then? On the stream I thought I heard grinding gears when he was trying to get it running again. Also, Lappi had issues in Saredegna as well. Gronholm was quite fitting as guest presenter this week then...

Just watch two other cameras.
FX camera - immediately after problem screen show N - gear and 0 rev, but car was running and crankshaft should rotate.
Face camera - Latvala searching something on his left. What he thinking to found there? secret "problem off" switch?
Strange
Still interesting to see the final outcome tomorrow. Neuville is slow today too, but better keep you head down and reach the finish slowly and get some points. Sorry for Latvala but he should meditate on the 100 times M-Sport prepared a perfect car for him and he binned it. Speaking about the Fords, same story year after year, they hype massively before Finland and cock it up. Should take it easy and wait patiently to see what the rally fortune keeper is inclined to give you. About Lappi - he was held in a factory team for so many years where he could learn many other things from that surrounding, not many other boys had been given these chances and patience. Suninen is very interesting how he juggles on the edge, he makes small mistakes everywhere but does not leave the road to hit rocks and trees. Tanak seems to be going consistently backwards this season.
What a nonsense post like always from you and not because of the Tänak mentioning.
Tanak is having his best season to date, how exactly has Tanak been 'consistently backwards this season'??? A puncture, could happen to anyone at any time, even to the best of the best. Just ask Seb. Loeb back in Germany 2011...he will tell you. Just a shame that like Paddon, this rally wasn't smiling on Tanak.

Oof, not good. Every time anybody has electrical problems I think of the 307

Latvalas MDC chances are long gone even if he wins the power stage. It will be Ogier vs Nueville unless they both DNF and Latvala wins which is highly unlikely.
Also as for Germany, Lappi was pretty damn fast last year. Right behind Ostberg in many stages and overall. He's not going to beat Ogier, but he can finish in the top 5 in my opinion.
Thierry Neuville is sixth in the Finnish rally, the ninth event of the WRC world championship, currently dominated by the amazing Finnish Esapekka Lappi. The Belgian is 15 seconds behind Craig Breen (5th). A few minutes ago, it was learned that Sebastien Ogier would not resume the start this Sunday.
"I wish them a good recovery and that we are back in Germany, it confirms that they will not score a point this weekend, an additional reason for us to ensure this result and see if we can grab a few points In the Power Stage, "Neuville told Olivier Gaspard, a special correspondent for the RTBF in Finland.
The Belgian could take the lead of the world championship. He does not think too much: "We do not necessarily have to go ahead, getting closer is already good, it does not change anything to be in front or behind. To get back a few points ... When you have a fight against a four-time world champion, you do not win the championship on a race, you have to be smart and take what you have to take. "

So gutted, finally Latvala showcases his best season to date (perhaps besides 2014) and is being robed by a technical issue for a second time, & this time a home win....
I did some crappy mental math and, had the Yaris not failed in Poland or Finland (Poland was possibly his own mistake, but still), he'd have been second and first. With no power stage points in Poland and 5 in Finland his total points by the end of the weekend would have been 160, enough to tie with Ogier going into the final four rallies.
I should stop dwelling on the what ifs, though.

nice clip with Mads

It’s great to see Lappi close to his dream win in Finland and Sunninen in P2. Hope both managed to keep positions till the end. Nice job from Evans today. Bad luck for Latvala and Veiby. Huttunen has been fantastic in WRC2 and so has Ciamin in JWRC. It’s always nice to see young talented guys being noticed, and this rally seems to be all about it.
Don’t think so, not in recent years at least and if we take off the first couple of WRC seasons, the closest we get is probably Toivonen in 1980 RAC (first win on his 4th WRC outing for Talbot Sunbeam, still he had a few WRC private entries in top Gr. 4 cars the previous years).
Nope. This was issue with electronics and in Poland there was "wrong object" stuck pushing the throttle pedal and he tried to cope with clutch and burned it. It was called as "human error". I don't think Latvala will ever tell more precisely what the object was.
In Red Bull TV Bosse translated JM's words "not same again" which he meant it like "technical issue again" and not like exact same issue. Leading commentator guy made it into form of "same issue as in Poland".

Should the stage marshal be reminded he be aiming to be keeping crews and spectators safe? All fun and damaged bank accounts (from car damage) until someone gets hurt.
Why could the stage official not notify the start of the stage to fore warn the crews of the potential danger at that point of the stage? or were the drivers crashing for fun?
Watching this made me cringe. I've rallied a few events as a navigator in the states. If there's a tricky section we were notified if more than one car had an issue. These were all club rallies, but after the first three cars it should be noted.
These guys DO have notes and they do get to do a 2 pass recce .
Problem is following lines of the previous cars and thatäs something the brain tends to do...We all know drivers have microscopic brains and very big feet.
You have a co+driver yappping all kinds of mostly jibberish so he feels he's contributing and meanwhile the EYES see the tire marks of those who have gone before..
Eyes win over ears, one car goes off good and leaving nice tracks----more going to follow..
