WRC event Rally Estonia 2020

Wow Breen great time !!

@Craig_Breen
Finally! We have been a while waiting for this again, fastest on SS9 of #RallyEstonia ! The car does absolutely everything I ask of it it's absolutely joyous !

Breen: "Pressure ? Pressure is for tyres !" :D

quite an interesting rally this is turning out to be so far.
it's really good to have back some wrc action after the long break and Estonia is a great venue

Nicolas Gilsoul really braced himself for a big off on that one.

Arghhh Gus ! Wow that was nearly all over... lucky no trees there.

Hopefully Loubet isn't following his lines too closely!

Very disappointing return to WRC action for the M-Sport crews.

Of course no-one expected them to be challenging the top places, but the gap to them is wider than I feared. And being slower than Katsuta is hard to take, even though he has driven well.

Not what they needed after the tough lockdown and loss of income and testing.

I was expecting exactly this. I mean, go look at Rally FInland 2019 results. Of course you could argue they were missing the top driver, but it's obvious that the car wasn't just performing well enough on the high speed sections. And then it was annnounced their new engine upgrade was postponed to Monte Carlo, and they have missed all the testing from this year whereas other teams have been doing multiple days per each driver.
