If someone never gets punctures it's just because he is pushing less than the others. Ogier also never crashed untill this year.

Ogier had definitely the most punctures, which is also connected to the driving style. I have been to many events during Pirelli years and I could clearly see that he was taking biggest risks to make a puncture, especially this year. He was taking the biggest cuts on tarmac.
Solberg testing GR Yaris Rally2 today with Pirelli tyres.
Yeah, punctures are often down to driving style/lines, and not 'bad luck'. If you keep getting them, then there's a reason why........Quote:

Are the Hankooks available to buy for teams and privateers yet?Quote:
