awesome second half of the stage by Kalle, seems that all is not lost yet
Thierry jump start, +10 secs
This stage, especially second part felt really like Finland as well. Kalle got the pilot mode on.Quote:

Great morning from Tänak, he looks really good so far with the old car without hybrid
I dont think that rain is going to hit today
None on my weather app, but some tomorrow morning.Quote:

seems Tänak doesnt care if the car holds up or not, just wants to win the rally :D
Wow Neuville !!
I had a feeling that Thierry is going to win this stage by miles.
Neuville screamed "merde" many times on board near and after the stage end. I wonder was it just some mistake or is something wrong with the car.
... and do FIA watch carefully now? :)
Where did Neuville's time come from?
Proper shortcut somewhere :D
Neuville like the rough stuff and he is usually good at that. Now the stage was really rough and also long, it was time to accumulate time.
Nightmare rally for Fourmaux.
Was his last chance to catch the time and be in the fight for the win, he took it.Quote:

Unlucky Solberg. Others got to avoid the fesh-fesh going round him.

Drama for Josh McErlean.
He stopped on SS7 as he could smell his exhaust and worried something was burning – turns out there's a hole in the bodywork but the car is mechanically OK !
Why did Neuville start behind Katsuta
He was 5 minutes late out of TC8, which means 50s penalty too. Reason for lateness is not know to me.Quote:

Ott said to Martin something about 2wd and there is now oil behind him
was fun while it lasted it lasted
,,Quality is amazing..''
2-3min loss coming easily..
He said "shit" about times between Flying Finish and Stop at the previous stage, so I guess he had to fix an issue.Quote:
