How is that even possible, wasn't Saab 96 called a canoe for a reason? :)

Has Neuville proved that he is smart enough before?

In-car dust slowing Kalle maybe.

at what speed should Neuville drive then? should he slow down on purpose and not to make the gap bigger?
if Ogier would be leading and winning stages with such times, then it would be calculated and smart drive? but others are pushing too much all the time :D

we'll see at the end who got the pace right. There is also some luck needed.

Exactly, since Ogier almost never crashes from the lead. Neuville however does.

The pace is right as long as you lead and drive, once you retire it was too much ;)

yeah same could be said about Ott the last two rallies

Neuville and Hyundai history says they wont survive at this pace but this could be the exception that proves the rule.
