she forgot to mention Meeke also did the recce for the past 2 days and wrc.com confirms he will compete in rally portugal. by the way, it would be ironic if Ogier would crash out on his 100th outing like Loeb did back in sweden 2008.Quote:

Thierry Neuville @thierryneuville
3rd quickest so far in the shakedown of @RallyMexico with a time of 3:53.5! It’s 0.8s slower than @JariMattiWRC who is the fastest #WRC #TN
OT: Free will. Not robots. Prefer the right to decide themselves. Has nothing to do with God.Quote:

Sweepstake on number of rock-related day retirements from WRC - at least 8 I reckonQuote:

I also had that feeling before, not about the WRC cars but mainly other classes, like Group N. But at the time I was told it wouldn't be a problem.Quote:

Video from shakedown from Torstein Eriksen (codriver of Frank Tore Larsen), they both work as weather crew for M-Sport at this event.
The only issue in the world where we're on the same side!Quote:

What is the deal with Camilli? what Malcolm saw in this guy? is it really not a commercial deal that he want us to believe?
Hope he shows more pace from now on.
Just a short street stages and Ostberg didnt do much better actually. The real rally starts tonight and Camilli will be suffering even more then.
Again a very strong start from Kremer. Two fastest times and taking the lead in WRC-2 in front of Suninen.
Tyre info:
M-Sport/Paddon: 5 LTX Force H4
Ogier: 4S+1H
Mikkelsen: 5S
Latvala: 3H+2S
Sordo: 6S
Neuville: 3S+2H
tyre choice is very interesting. how may dramas we will have on El Chocolate? All drivers afraid of it and saying it is the hardest.
Reading that Ogier 'will open the road for two full days'... wont there be some cars doing Rally2 ahead of him on Saturday ?
waiting great rallymexico.. Hopefully we get new winner! Go J-M
No, they start after all P1Quote:
