Well did anyone really expected some results from Breen, Greensmith and Formaux in Sweden? They could drive any car and still would be underdogs in Sweden.

My understanding for why the Msport is so slow is because the Sweden rally have more long straight ,So there have less use for battery and more depend on the engine power. So we can see the Ford performance back to last year and the Hyundai also beome stronger suddenly, Is that right?

The point is that these guys didn't play these tactics, didn't give up points and they became champions.

Breen's job was different in Monte - he had to finish and couldn't risk an off on the PS.

It's more likely to do with the gearbox.

There are much less options available for ratios / ramps with these new cars.
