He would have passed Evans easily by now if he didn't loose those 20s due to his fault in SS21. So he's just trying to correct for it.Quote:

IMO everyone else is more disappointed than Ott himself. After retiring he pretty much implied that he already had 2. and 3. poisition from Poland and to win, one must take risks, didn`t work this time, but hey, what the heck, probably happens again and happens to others. In terms of crashing from p1, Neuville is the second unluckiest guy after Meeke, but he is in a close fight for WDC...
Mikkelsen pushed hard on SS 22. He's fastest so far, but Paddon, Nueville and JML still to go. Andreas said he drove maximum.
Yo EstWRC, commiserations for you and your boy Ott. Super pilot.Quote:

Sordo now "only" 13 sec away.
JML surely understands how Tanak feels. Ott in top shape this year.. dude can drive the wheels (and spoiler) off that thing.

Yeah forgot the reversed order on PS includes superrally cars. Don't think Latvala can win it then.
Best time for Neuville again, curius for power stage. If i was Nandan i would ask Sordo and Paddon to go all out on that one. I see Mikkelsen doieng well in there also.
Solid imagination...Quote:

You didn't let us down Ott. You're a true fighter which is what rallying is all about. Win together, lose together, we'll be back stronger
arriving at 01:17 :)Quote:

That's why he always comes on good points position and why he is the four times world champion. It's not luck.
Malcolm just confirming in estonian television that they just went for the win and Tänak saying the same....but boy Malcolm looked so so frustrated.
Good fortune is a big part of it. But agree, the bigger picture and the longer game are how he approaches championships.Quote:

Should suit his driving style and don't forget Latvala & Esapekka might surprise us.

It's different place than Mikkelsen, but very likely the one Sordo was warning about.Quote:

EDIT: He could have taken penalty in TC to change his position.
Why oh why do we need to hear Jon Desborough????
Two magic Desborough quotes so far:Quote:

Hänninen said it doesn't matter if he's 10th or 11th but for Manufacturer points it matters if he's ahead of Mikkelsen and Evans. Apparently he's not.
No that I like him, but the second part is possible.Quote:

Not a bad run from Hollywood #2.
Latvala pushing too hard in some places
Still no explanation for why Latvala started after those 3. Someone can find what the TC lists said?
Looks like he's over driving the car at times.Quote:
