Shame for Camilli having a driveshaft problem after good event in Portugal and a decent start here. :(

Shame for Camilli having a driveshaft problem after good event in Portugal and a decent start here. :(
Pity some WRC2 drivers had no chance to go through SS2 on race mode as Scandola was even faster than Suninen in SS3. Let's see further.Quote:

SS5 - Everyone going faster with the lower road positions...
Tanak slow though...
Scandola faster than Suninen again.Quote:

Scandola is doing a very good job. Also Fuchs and of course Suninen. WRC2 sounds quite interesting.
lol, those Dmacks are funny tires. Previous stage Tänak was third and this stage finished on rims and lost 47 seconds.
Difficult for Tanak. The reason he's in a drive is because of Dmack so he can't really turn around and slate Dmack - even if their tyres are made of chewing gum.
Nice to see Thierry back in the lead.
Tanak knew the DMacks were suffering but still destroyed them with his 'maximum attack' on the last stage. Now he paid the price. :(
Yeah, problably destroyed the rubber on the previous stage. If they wanted to show their pace - good for them; but overall, not so smart thing to do.Quote:

Mads Østberg @MadsOstberg
SS5 - 9:58.3 Tried to manage my tyres. Maybe I could push more, but wanted to get through.
Prokop quicker than Ogier there but struggling for motivation.
Seems to be complaining about the stewards' decision. Surely that's a cut and dry penalty though. Seal is broken - end of story? If he'd not been registered as a team I guess this wouldn't be an issue?
Do not forget that rallysport is to be first (or on highest possible position) in finish of the rally, not about good times on the stage...Quote:

we dont exactly know what are his and team's plans. maybe they wanted to do so?Quote:

Henning best Ford on SS5, and 7th overall!
Not bad!
Same with anyone but we all make comments.Quote:

Remember that it was first loop of stages for hard DMack. They want to know how these tyres work in different circumstances, so, another lesson learnt ;)
Does he have co-dirver? Or do they have pacenotes?

LOL, why people in that spot are looking at trees instead of looking at road and cars?Quote:

José Suarez is also on a T16, but no info about him on SS4 and SS5 (not even stating him as retired).
