man what a pace from Teemu!
Ooohhh. Suninen!!
Wow what a time by Suninen !!
Hahah love that
Ott losing 28s on a stage to Suninen with a clean drive. Something I thought I'd never see.
That was the mood I like to see from Suninen, figthter not winer.
Jauhot suuhun!
Tänak losing 2,5 sek/km to Suninen/Ford without any problems? WTF is going on?
Tanak 28s loss to Suninen....
Yeah, rear diff release or something maybe so It's on and offQuote:

Gus lost 10s.
I sent it!
Fair play to to Teemu, it’s good to see him talk like that..
Evans would love it if Suninen can run away and win this event.
yeah maybe, that loss seems too big for a "clean stage"Quote:

It can be just too careful driving or the road didn't suite for Hyundai, but Tänak is not usually not he man who is saying problems out loud. If he actually had some problems, we may get to know later.
At the moment it would be so nice shake when M-Sport guys could keep all the title fighters away from big-points. But it was just first stage...
Unless there was mechanical issues with the car, that time from Tanak was a bit embarrassing for a world champion desperately fighting to defend his crown. Surely there was an issue, there must have been.
Possibly something wrong with Tänak he didn't tell us? Or just tyre strategy?Quote:

But I think it´s in their heads as well.
Everyone talked about how narrow and tuff the first stage should be.
Suninen ignored the talk and decided to push, unless from the others.
That´s my explanation for his epic drive...
we will see on next one, if he is slow also there
but what a stage from Suninen, the best i have seen from him and nice to see him so pumped up!
Loubet has just beaten Ott as well....Quote:

To be honest Tänak's drive did sound a bit weird, as if he didn't rev the car very high and tried to sail smoothly through the corners, as if maybe a brake error? Don't know. Would have loved to hear Porter's theorys not that other muppet who was commentating.
It seemed he even struggled to leave the stop control, the car seemed to go sideways as if one of the rear driveshafts was brokenQuote:

Nope. Just plain reardrive with hardtorque diff. Just like Volvo or Ascona or Escort...Quote:

And he said yesterday he should not even look at the times. Just drive carefully...
stage getting worse? i hoped to see Tänak and Kalle faster
Whoa Oliver, hats off! 7th quickest overall on SS1!
Superb Oliver!
well this stage is cleaning backawrd it seems, lol
good for Evans though
What's wrong with Tänak
second stage in a row he starts losing a lot in second part of the stage, weirdQuote:
