for sure Meeke deserves a wrc win. He has done very good speed
Of course he deserves and i hope he will win but a long way still to go.
I've never seen Meeke so fast overall on a rally up to now, very good, let's hope he can keep this position until sunday :)
BTW, it seems Tanak has a really bad relationship with the water
bc Ti-Tanak :laugh:
he hit a stone inside a watersplash
oh, I see, the rock plays the "iceberg" role.
Now gearbox problem for JML !
Another problem for Vw!
Please Kris, just hold it together for once! Long, long way to go!
oh dear, not good rally for the Polo

What's Latvala's problem? He said it's not the selection (I guess of the gear) but the "drive from the front diff". What does it mean? How is it related with gearbox?
I thought it's next to gearbox, not in it.
well it is still a diff, but should be in the "box" I think
watch at 1,56 the suspension travel at both front wheels how fast they react .Amazing.

Solid day from Meeke, it's all in his hands now.
I think Meeke has to win this, i do not think anyone will push in this rally anymore.
we have seen Meeke to bin it even at safe mode.
Lets hope this time will manage to win

wish they would show a proper stage rather than super specials.. but still good to see it
How is the performance of Maxi rally cars comparing with R5s..?
Somebody was asking what happened to Ogier's car, here is the team statement:
"Six hours after he stopped the engine of his Polo R WRC shortly before the end of Special Stage 2, Sébastien Ogier returned to the service park in Carlos Paz. "The first ten kilometres were perfectly normal," said the World Champion looking back at the morning. "Then the car suddenly lost power and it sounded like it was only running on three cylinders." Ogier and co-driver Julien Ingrassia were initially able to keep going, albeit at a reduced speed.
But the two World Champions' hopes of reaching the finish were dashed. "After about 45 kilometres, the car kept on losing power, then the engine cut out completely." Ogier and Ingrassia used the on-board alarm electronics to try and find the problem. "Unfortunately it didn't work."
The Polo R WRC with car number 9 isn't back in service yet, so the engineers haven't started an in-depth analysis. "If we're lucky, it's only a faulty sensor or a problem with the fuel supply. Then we will probably be able to drive again tomorrow," said Ogier."
Meeke has a great chance this time, good luck to him.
