Wrong event to judge the performance of any fin though to draw general conclusions.... many tomato cans performed well here and they were nothing on other events.


Atko is also on a good pace given the circumsatnces...he beats the future media champion Ketomaa...

Ogier knows these stages way better than Lappi. This is his second wrc rally ever. To match and be faster than Ogier is very promising.

At least Novikov made it to the service.

My disappointment of the rally is Ketomaa. He has not been on the pace this rally and in NZ he was quite disappointing. Did not expect to see Atko faster than him

I have said from the beginning that Latvala is sooooo overated. He rarely wins and he crashes all the time.

I think it's time be realistic when peoples are claiming to put back Atko to manu seat. Simply not quick enough here and was not quick in Mexico (I know private etc but still)

Ogier only needs to make small error and Lappi and Paddon will pounce

---

Lasse Lampi and Esapekka Lappi. Different family names.
