Greensmith Katsuta testing
https://youtu.be/O5fO_h2HR6A
For me the biggest unknown in terms of pace is Meeke. He has a long history of pushing hard and crashing on Monte but also some good results with DS3. Then in 2018 he drove at slower pace but kept it on the road without issues and ended 4th. I was praising him here how a mature drive that was and bode well for rest of the year....
This year it's a new team, car and completely new position of "3rd" driver, really wonder how that goes.
-----------
I'd still bet on Ogier over Tanak here as long as it's not completely dry whole weekend. Loeb 3-4ish, together with Neuville.
I feel like the works car has a new sound. Don't You think so?Quote:

yes they have different sounds these 2 cars,but thats not strange/new among factory/client cars.Different sound can create a different engine map for example.Quote:

Are any tweaks/ changes to the anti-lag system on the R5 Fiesta published on an official FIA homologation form?
if changes are at hardwear you need homologation change,but a different antilag map. can create different sound with same hardwear.Quote:

Few years old.
Yes, it's an old video, I'm sure I saw it more than 3 years ago.
Yes. It's to the point, the sponsor logo isn't lost amongst a load of other shit... yeah, I like it, but there again, I very much dislike most of the works teams' mixed colour schemes. I guess we are all allowed to like different things ey.Quote:

The Polo looks a bit like Noddy's or Donald Duck's car with those small rims and big tires
That suspension travel though! You could mistake it for being the Polo WRC just with a different spoiler!Quote:

Brilliant... Ogier signing a VW and Loeb signing a Citroen!Quote:

I think you could be right ....Quote:
