Add to that Sordo’s success.Quote:

They were fairly evenly matched in those times, except I'd claim that Neuville could extract more from the at first lackluster Rally1 in early 2022.Quote:

Concludes it very well how journalists spotlight changes the perspective.Quote:

Was it because of shifted-focus (Breen incident) or something else - but I think there were not that much complaining from Tänak in Croatia (this is how I felt, I did not do any stats for that :) )
I don't say that there are no problems - we all see that there are. But like Rich pointed out - everyone have problems and everyone are working to get them solved.
I hope drivers are earning wins because of good driving, not because if (not driver caused) technical failures. But it's technical sport, technical failures are part of it.
Your constant sniping at M-Sport is just what Milllener is talking about. Some people cant wait to jump on them whenever there's an issue.Quote:

Millener is refusing to acknowledge in that interview that reliability has been a big issue since they launched the rally1 car. Tanak will be "sniping" for the rest of the season if they can't get on top of all the various niggly (or big issues) they have.Quote:

Tanak wants the best
I agree with you.
He sounds like a 5 year old in that interview who denies he stole a candy, although he did
I suggest any rally fan who is able to forget M-Sport's tale of hardship should head down to their Doctor and get their Alzheimer's diagnosed...Quote:
