yes but Ogier is no more than 80-85 so lifting 70kg like that makes him.... A BEAST.

You'd guess having to clean every rally is a 'heavy weight on his shoulders' so he should be used to that.

I'll show myself out.

i was wondering: since when is it allowed again to drive on 3 wheels to the service? i thought it was forbidden since a few years, but lefebvre did it anyway.

A very nice event this Poland was....the rain which came today showed us how can a weather turn everything up-side down.
About Tänak-a lot was already written and yes, he was on a winning course the whole week-end. But from previous experience let us be careful with statements ''Ott will be in a winning position on each gravel rally''. Give him and D-Mack a bit more time so that the disappointment would not ruin almost perfect Poland event.
I'm also very happy for M-Sport; the result shows us how close regarding performance & speed all four manufactures are. Fiesta is not a crap car....
By the way - what a relief this Ott's flat tyre was in Wolfsburg...they were already on the way to lose the 4th rally in the row....''red alarm'' !!

All four wheels were still attached to the car. Albeit barely. I can't remember from the footage but I think they'd done a fix so the broken wheel was still turning.

What a sad, yet glorious day for Ott.
You write history, boy.
Respect!

It is still forbidden on public roads. Did he drive without the wheel in opened traffic? I remember when Lappi was first penalized (or excluded) for driving on three wheel on the road section in Portugal but the decision had to be canceled since it appeared that the road although it wasn't a stage was closed for public.

Also a possibility. I admit I don't know how it was.
