I'm a Meeke fan but I agree with you... He has a godawful record this year for sure :(

Meeke is out AGAIN?Oh, my...
Latvala, Meeke, Tanak and Paddon... Can't always be bad luck. Both Sebs don't / didn't
do much mistakes,
there has to be a some reason for that.
Poor Paddon, I really am sorry for him.
Mechanical problem in a rally where he was shining again after one year of struggling is really unfair.
Now Tanak or Breen must win this rally to make me happy again. :(
Will Neuville get a nominal time?
From Citroen
SS7 - Ponte de Lima 2 (27.46km)
Big dramas in the last proper stage of the day! Kris Meeke has to retire for today with a broken damper. Latvala (rolled) and Paddon (electrical issue) also lost a lot of time. Breen reported an issue with a damper, but he can continue without trouble.

Its sounding like another 'batch' problem again for Citroen.
So they decided to show everyone with new car from SS8 and SS9 except Lappi and Al Qassimi... :rolleyes:
M-sport 1-2-3 on the final stage of the day almost, Paddon ruined it.
great day for Tänak and i hope we will be in the same position tomorrow and at the end of the rally.
