Tanak says the tyre gave up after 10kms, too hot. Does not look good for the rally, it will only get hotter from here.
Edit: Neuville super slow, with no problem at all lol.

If I could be a rally driver this year that is not Ogier I would definitely chose to be Ott Tanak.
I can do anything I want: if things are good it's because I'm good, if they're bad it's tires fault.
That's the best deal ever.
Sad to see Neuville like this. Must be very difficult mentally. He talked a lot about having bad luck. But in the last 12 months a big percentage of that has been self-inflicted.
Meeke on a proper push!
Neuville looses 26 seconds on a stage on pace alone, very worrying for him.
Neuville is completely lost. I think we should stop hoping for a resurrection.Quote:

Even Camilli quicker than Ostberg.
He needs to learn that things happen for a reason and not because of an excuseQuote:

Welcome back Meeke!
I agree but I think it's too late for this too.Quote:

Don't you dare betraying Jari-Matti!!! ;)Quote:

Does Meeke have the road position to win?
Ostberg......terrible. He should stick to local rallies in Norway. Don't want to sound too negative, but he needs to stop pretending that's he's a challenger
Tanak and Meeke looking good. But they have to keep it on the road, it's still early in the rally.
About Neuville I think it's too early to draw conclusions after a couple stages, let's see how the rest of the rally goes.
Nice time by tanak 1.4 slower than ogier
What a surprise. Tanak's tire now is magically working... lol.
what happened to suninen?
We are drawing conclusions after one year and a half, not a couple stages. :)Quote:

I hope Tanak can fight for podium!
Some say he hit something and damaged suspension.Quote:

Meeke makes another 2,4 seconds. Lets hope he can keep it together.
Another great time by meeke
Ostberg says he has downshift problems. Interestingly, he had downshift problems with Citroën last year as well, but nobody else except him. Bad luck or downshifting too fast all the time?
GO Meeke Go Tanak!! my favourite drivers
I think this loop of stages has thrown Latvala out of contention, with the stages very sandy on 2nd runs I think he wont be able to get the time back.
Meeke and Tänak doing great at the moment. Paddon a lot better than I thought. Keep it up please
(16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): It was ok, it was fast and I can drive fast. :D
You are really impudent! How could you??Quote:

Very nice start from Tidemand in WRC. Struggles from Suninen and car issues for Evans it seems.
He can make a real statement on this rally and hopefully a step towards getting himself into WRC machinery next year.
Are you speaking to me?Quote:

Quickest through so far, but still far from satisfied. "The car is not good to drive at the moment. I'm struggling with understeer. I did what I could."
Maybe he needs to change his driving style and have a nose-end first setup on his car all the time!!
Latvala fastest. Go Jarimatti!!
First loop and 7 drivers whitin 25 secs - exciting!
Tideman very strong in wrc2.
Crazy Finn just woke up ;)
