Takamoto Katsuta
We stopped before SS3, due to technical issue on the car since SS1. Huge disappointment but tomorrow is coming anyway.
Tänaks explaining wooden horse feeling https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/tanak...se-comparison/
I find Thierry’s excuse funny in the article , Ott starts just ahead of him and Sordo from back with the same machine can go fast but for him the road gets worse
The Greeks used a wooden horse to fool the Trojans and win the battle...
Kalle already 5,3 sec faster as Ott on first split
Great first stage of the loop for Kalle, 5 sec faster as Evans
Edit: puncture for Tanak
Big loss for Tänak in first split, 5.6 seconds
Tyre off the rim.
So, Rovanperä solo it will be then...
Tänak lost 50sec to Rovanperä, 54sec to Lappi. Sh*tty thing is that most likely (by pure speed) he is the 2nd on the road tomorrow and it's harder to fight back from this position. But, others are not in the finish as well.
Amazingly similar differences in splits between Rovanpera and Evans on Lousa 1/4
'Quite a weak product...'
Only 50 sec lost for Tanak, considering it happened near the start, that is not so big loss. Ofcourse unfortunate for him, but is not over yet.
At least the tyre stayed on and didn't seem to damage the car.
1 spare?
Fucking tragic for Tanak
Great time by Lappi, 4 sec faster as Kalle
I would have been surprised not seeing Kalle bounce back in this rally, with good starting position. In my opinion he's doing all he needs to win another title, grabbing good points even when he's not confident.
Rally is still long but let's see.
Does Tänak have 1 or 2 spares?
2 spares, now 1
Puncture lottery now.
Why is Mikkelsen changing lol??
Starting position wise Ott is also messed for tomorrow
Ouh well.
Ok, Mikkelsen out of contention... too sad.
Gryazin and Zaldivar stopped
At least Tanak didn't lose enough to drop behind the top WRC2 guys...
No second split for Meeke?
Edit: and Marczyk, who started after him already in finish
Meeke stopped damper issue
First stage in afternoon loop and its already wreckage in WRC2 field...
Another good first split for Kalle
Evans loosing a lot of time in opening the road
Kalle will take the lead after this one
So 1 spare after all.. stupid decision. Again.
