I see this going down to the wire - Breen will up the pace in the second leg, we will see if Lefebve can respondQuote:

I understand the need for time to develop - but at the same time it's also important to sign that big deal when your stock is at its highest. For instance maybe last year Lappi had more hype behind him than he does now? Guys like Tidemand and Suninen have shown they are on the same level.Quote:

Camilli in front of Ostberg after midday? Problems with Mads car?
Probably not, Camilli is just faster than him. Sordo's times are strange though.
Kajetanovic is proof why ERC is considered a lady cup for c class drivers by those with a functional brain.
Kajetanovic is as far behind Tidemand, as ostberg is behind mikkelsen.
He's running very late. Since these are soft sandy roads he probably has reasonably bigger ruts to cope with than Evans or Tidemand who are running some 15-20 cars ahead.Quote:

Nice and tight at the top of the leaderboard.
He enjoys it and its the first time this season when the tires are on the same level with Michelins. Finland should be great too and then comes nightmare with 4 tarmac rallies in a row.

“I was expecting to enjoy this rally, and I am enjoying the stages. It’s fantastic to drive a rally car on roads like this. But at the same time, I’m here to compete, and I want to be more competitive. We’ve been trying, but we made two mistakes on the last two stages [SS4 and SS5]. With two mistakes in two stages, we lost quite a lot of time. The flow of the driving has been nice, so we just need to try and pull everything together this afternoon.”
SS6 is almost done and not dramas yet, not even among top wrc2 drivers.
It's a bit unusual.
Paddon is talking about too much understeer all day.
Our friend Lundefaret must have given some instruction for the setup. lol
If you were team manager and you had to - right now - pick one of these drivers for your WRC team. Who would you pick?
Tidemand
Evans
Lappi
Suninen
For me it's Tidemand.
An hour til the next stage ?? :(
Anyone found any good fan videos yet ?
Very poor times by those factory-drivers Latvala and Sordo again ...
Lappi.Quote:

Great attitude, great times ! :cool:
This attitude reminds me of Ostberg. LOLQuote:

Tideman ans Suninen going at it, those two will have many fights in the future :)
I belive Tänak is not on his limit, but he sure is pushing this fiesta over the limit.
I hope there will be a place for Tidemand and Suninen.Quote:
