Do tell and quote people that were expecting Loeb to be effectively last WRC on every single pass at SD. I certainly wasn't, even though he rarely pushes hard on SD.

It doesn't surprise me at all tbh. The fact that he has been away from the sport for years still stands in my opinion, he probably still lacks some rythem to be on the pace straight away. Combine this with the fact he has come straight out of Dakar and most importantly, he has only driven the Hyundai for what, 1,5 days? No it doesn't surprise me at all, he'll be there or there about tomorrow I'm sure.

Feels so good to be back doing what I love, happy with shakedown this morning and looking forward to getting started for real. #KM5 https://t.co/lKvWcUOXS6
Hyundai 6, 9 and 10. I know its only SD but I wouldnt be surprised if this is the positions we will see from Hyundai on tarmac this year. At least the first half of the season. Their new boss has a big job ahead of him..
Duval was once quickest on shakedown driving a Fabia WRC, and that was in Catalunya when it was still full tarmac... Shakedown isn't that representative for the rally itself, especially in Monte.
