Tanak on it..
https://twitter.com/fcalispa/status/822411170514685952
somehow neuville gives the feeling that he is relax and in control, like he is not driving 110% to stay in the lead and can go faster if required. Very mature drive so far. Rally is still long though.
Same for Tanak, hope he scores a good podium to give him a confidence boost to start the season with new co pilote.
Why isnt the Press Conf on the live stream ? :(
just remembered now, Ostberg at the start of last year,and for how many rallies had the excuse of ''new co driver''

when is red-bull's show on?
I was too careful. I have not dared to go faster, truly trusting the information provided by our openers. But with the changes of conditions, I lost too much time, clearly Finally, in the last special of the day, the next one, I stuck in a pin, it was a bit at low speed, when I restarted, I was deprived of power for 500 meters. : The car is still young, when it is restarted, there are some manipulations to make! Obviously, here, something had jumped, we had to rectify the shot, and it worked. It's a shame, because we're losing ten seconds! "
"This afternoon, conditions were much more difficult than in the morning," said the Monte Carlo leader. "This morning, it was quite constant, with a lot of ice and snow. There was a lot of "slush", there were big traps, and the terrain had evolved a lot since the opening of the openers. By taking risks, there was way to go fast, but I did not dare to take Kris Meeke, Hayden Paddon and Juho Hanninen, we're only three ahead of Sébastien Ogier and Ott Tanak. It's pretty tight, and I think we're all three on A big rhythm, while being pleased. "

Great day watching the cars slide around in the snow/slush! Tanak and one of the R3 Clio's was epic around the long right hander on 6!
Shame that even after last night's tragedy there was still many brain dead spectators, and the police are beyond useless at crowd/parking control.

The unfortunate circumstances that occurred yesterday, the first day of the Rally of Monte Carlo, where a person has died, unfortunately has been an Asturian, Jesus Ordonez Fernandez, of San Miguel de la Barreda (Siero), a great fan of Car racing and a magnificent photographer.
Jesus, present in most of the races held in Asturias and abroad, has been a regular participant in the Photography Contest of Infomotor for many years, winning the XVII edition, even in the 2016 edition that still has not delivered the trophies . From this means of communication we want to make to his family our feeling of pain and of pain by this loss, that surely will be the one of all the fans to the sporting motor sport Asturian.

WORLD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP
M-Sport Ford WRC squad won't give Ogier and Tanak team orders

Sebastien Ogier and his M-Sport team-mate Ott Tanak will be allowed to fight to the finish of the Monte Carlo Rally, according to team principal Malcolm Wilson.
Ogier and Tanak ended the rally's first full day split by just three tenths of a second in second and third places.
Reigning World Rally champion Ogier gained considerably on Tanak on Friday's final stages as he recovered from a morning error, but there had been little to choose between their pace for much of the day.
Wilson insisted he wanted the scrap to continue and would not ask either to back off.
"That's why we're here and that's why the fans are here," he said.
"We want to see the fight. We want to see them both out there fighting on the limit.
"There's a long way to go in some very tricky conditions, but yes they are both free to battle it out."
The Ford Fiesta WRC pair are 45s behind leader Thierry Neuville, but despite that gap Ogier admits he has not given up a fourth straight Monte win.
"Nothing is impossible, especially with the [potential for different] tyre choices tomorrow," he said.
"A gap of 45s - even if it's Monte Carlo - it's better to have this than be behind.
"I will focus on myself and try to drive well and get comfortable in the car.
"At the end of the day I would be happy to be in Monte Carlo with a podium and I don't want risk it all for victory.
"Monte is special and, especially for all the guys here, I want to give my best."
Tanak plans to try to ignore Ogier's times and focus on his own pace.
"He's close to home, so maybe he knows some tricks here," said the Estonian.
"The plan is still not to get in the fight. I want to carry on with the speed we have.
"Seb was really fast this afternoon and I was nowhere close to him.
"I'll let these two guys [Neuville and Ogier] fight and let's see how it goes."
Leader Neuville said he felt relatively comfortable with his advantage.
"I wouldn't say I'm confident, but I am a bit more comfortable," he said.
"I feel good in the car and we have had good feedback and everything has worked well so far.
"I have a 45s lead, which is a lot, but also not much on this rally.
"It will be a tough fight tomorrow, but let's see who has upper hand in the evening."
big respect for Neuville. Watch his driving at this video,extra fast,perfect lines,not errors or corrections.

In Estonian press Tänak is also saying he won't go to fight with ogier and he didn't give everything today. He is surprised that everything is going so well
