WRC Secto Rally Finland 2025

Tyre also looking weird for Josh

Last hope for Hyundai seems to be either punctures or the fact that Rovanperä, Evans & Ogier will have to slug it out for Sunday points over two passes of Ouninpohja tomorrow.

Neuville's strategy would have worked with any point system, because his main strategy was "crash less times and rack up points" and indeed he only Super rallied once. Tanak was the driver who scored the most points from Power Sunday + Power Stages last year.

Tänak actually lost quite a bit in the end. Even Sesks took 2 second back and Josh also a bit

I think they all have just one spare

Great stage from Tänak considering his starting position

No, it definitely has a puncture. Sidewalls are strong enough to carry some speed, but unfortunately they are not runflat ones, as they once used to be. 5 more kilometers and this tyre would be kaputt.

Rovanperä is clearly fastest. I expected him to back off a bit.

Is there an issue about teamwarnings over radio before start, or did I misunderstand the talk from Becs and Co?
