Solberg very very lucky not to crash at an earlier part of the stage where Neuville also had a moment.

SS4 start delayed
You wonder if that would have happened, if they were allowed RNC between stages...Quote:

Some stunt driving by Seb:p
This what I wanted to say in my firts post. Fiesta is still faster, dosen't matter that it is "under developed" last years and I20 over developed. All these drivers you mentioned have tried to make I20 drivable on tarmac, but still the same "understeer". Tanak's words about I20: "You can do everything, but you can't change a women to a man".Quote:

Hopefully I20 rally1 car will be better on tarmac...

stage stopped after Sordo.. something happened to a spectator..
It's something else on gravel though. There Fiesta clearly lacks.
Still don't understand the logic how "Fiesta is still faster"Quote:

What a final for the World Rally Cars! 1st time during the current WRC17 era that not interesting enough to follow the event. Itīs so boring!
Agree a lot.Quote:

Yes. It was great season. Thatīs why the final event should be something else, but of course we all know that there is still COVID-time going. Better than nothing, but boring :)Quote:

A shame there's no Tanak here too which already weakened the Hyundai team and therefore Evans' chances.
Probably only an Ogier puncture or (unlikely) mistake can make it interesting now.
I don't think Seb will mind watching Elfyn win the battle if the war is won.

Good morning guys!
Tyre news
All drivers have taken 5x Pirelli PZero hard compound tyres for this morning's loop in the mountains.
Great time from Teemu (yeah, I'm a fan)!
Apparently Adamo wasn't satisfied in his performance yesterday.Quote:

Neuville stopped!
Edit: moving again...
Neuville slid wide on a right hander and hit the armco on the inside, but can continue.
Greensmith has brake issues, and Suninen is now only 1.6s behind.
Now Ogier can take it very easy, he can lose 40 seconds to Neuville and still be on podium, which is enough for him.
same as yesterday he could be taking an easy from the beginning, lets see second loop in the mountains - I think he still would pushQuote:
