For example Kankkunen said about 205T16 that it turns easily like a go-kart, whereas Delta S4 is more difficult to drive

Tänak doesnt want the car to feel like go-kart, he said the same comment about Toyota in Monte 2018 on one stage when the dampers were too stiff
his english isnt best so some things get lost in translation
but ok, everybody can understand it as they want

#Tyre info - SS6/SS7/SS16 All the @Michelinb @OfficialWRC drivers with 6 MICHELIN X-Ice North 3 except
@thierryneuville and @TeemuSuninenRac with 5 tyres.

Tyre weight strategy this day
Don't want to speak so soon, but what is so impressive about Evans is that he seems so comfortable when setting these faster times than Ogier (was the same in Monte bar the last 4stages).
so Neuville and Suninen can get only 1 new tyre after SS6, others get 2 new onesQuote:

WRC+ not working for me. Anyone else?

Weather will be atrocious tomorrow, good call
good news for Evans (less km) but he is untouchable anyway
So after the current stage, only two long stages and one short to go. Basically as if it was Sunday morning now.
work so farQuote:

he said yesterday he felt really good on gravelly sections
Malcolm need to do something. Sunninen is fast, but he does not have the psyke to pick himself up from bad rallies.Quote:

Evans is flying!
WOW Evans. I'm not bored wondering that times
Now even Alllive crew picked up that Evans is just like Tanak here last year.
Last year we said Ott was from other planet...
This year we have another alien. :) :)
If he ever gets it sorted. We have seen a few guys in Hyundai not ever being able to do it.Quote:

Last year Hyundai typically was slower than Toyota on the first passes but faster on second ones, but on this specific rally we haven't really had normal second pass conditions yet.
Huttunen past Mads while Mads try get Lindholm %)
Huttunen showing why he should have been in the official Hyundai R5 team. But money talks
yep, yhats what im missing too, plus the drivers could change the setup in service which is also missig nowQuote:

Tom Kristennson showing super times with Fiesta R2, being close to last R5's and even faster than some of them..
Ogier seems really pissy at stage ends. Seems to be not happy with the car.
Thats weird as Tänak, Evans, Meeke etc have previously felt very at home with the Toyota from the first kilometers. (Rovanperä the same it would seem)
So is he the only one not being able to fit into the Toyota rather well or are his moods mainly down to his team mate just trashing him.
Till 4th splits all was looking good for Oliver to get RC2 stage win and another WRC3 stage win, but than something going wrong :/
But still 2nd fastest.
Here it doesn't seem Ogier is really pushing into the (fast) corners. Trying to be smooth and straight instead all the time. Somehow like he doesn't trust the car for some reason.Quote:
