He slid off the road hitting the haybale in the chicane which made him lose time not gain... Not mentioning the bodywork damage he suffered which cost him more time. I don't know how you guys can expect a time penalty after all this...

Next two stages are also wet?

Any news if those are wet? Otherwise I don’t see the use of wetsQuote:

I gotta admit that wrc+ coverage has come a long way since 2 years ago
Is Hannes the personal storm chaser for Ott, or still working for Toyota?Quote:

Tänak must start watch Ogier. Gap just 44 seconds
Am I the only one who thinks there was something wrong with Lappis car? Front was vibrating a lot
Stage win for Tänak and admitted himself the previous stage decision with wets was stupid
With that tempo Ogier will pass him anyway. But good rally so farQuote:

Ogier got the day done - Pirelli mentioned, checked.
Good to hear driver comments like fun, enjoyment and positive, plus some smiles to end the day. #ForCraig
Stage winners:
* Ogier - SS1, SS3, SS4, SS5
* Neuville - SS2
* Lappi - SS6
* Tänak - SS7
* Evans - SS8
Neuville - leading the rally but with only one stage win.
Everyone in Top4 won one stage.
Rovanperä - before last stage his best was 3rd fastest. But he has found suitable setup and has good road position - in case there is wet conditions / rain then the road position come really important.
Ogier - as we can see from SS7 and SS8, all the cars are quite equal, so it's quite impressive how he deals with complicated conditions like SS1/SS5. But need to admit that his comments on Pirelli does not sound very professional. At the same time, I can understand the frustration.
Evans - in a way surprise. Ironical that he is the one who is not scoring points for the team. Has he won any fight against Neuville?
Tänak - gamble with tires didn't work out. Is it just me or he has a bit different attitude. Still admiting that there are some improvements to make, but not serving it with a bit wining attitude.
What can we expect from the weather on the stages tomorrow?
