Neuville pushing hard but not a big gap with Tänak
seemed to be a little disappointed
Evans going well on this one.
very good split progression from middle of stage be Evans and great time! C'moooonn!
not a good stage for Toyotas, i mean Meeke and Latvala....but its quite rough at places, so no wonder
Evans got past Meeke
Loeb fastest in spl4!!!
Sordo and Loeb coming fast
Hyundai driver swaps and their better road positions working well for winning points.Quote:

get in Loeb, right tyre choice again!
And finally a stage win for Loeb.
Hyundai 1-2-3 on this stage, like i said, the rougher it gets the better they are
Suninen disappointing so far.
In first year with Fiesta in 2017 Ogier was not fastest on almost all rallies. His results were pretty much comparable to this year:Quote:

Absolutely crazy!
The team will bend over and beg Seb to stay regardless - what else can they do?! Maybe they'll try and run one car next year so they can focus even more budget to get the car up to where Seb wants it... :D, shame that not even the FIA would allow that.Quote:

Some people shall avoid posting anything online. It's just plain stupid and embarassing.
No it isn’t. No driver could still be fighting for the title if the car was a piece of crap, like this Kaiser woman is saying. Besides tech issues are part of the game. I hope that tweet will be erased and a new one, asking apologies to Citroen and its fans, is rapidily sent.Quote:

Literally what is there to think for them?Quote:

Their only top driver and only one the can have. What is there to think?
This doesn't come out of nowhere, she lives with Seb and they surely talk about his job and how things are going. If Seb were happy about how things are going at Citroen she wouldn't have tweeted something like this. This probably just shows what Seb has told her behind closed doors at home about how he feels about Citroen.Quote:

It's motorsport and things happen. The Ogier's have been flying so high so many years that they have forgotten some principles.
Pity that this all has happened but it motorosport and it's life and please do not forget that everything is still on the table, no need to cry until all is decided.

Citroën can pull the plug, can sack him if the HQ gets mad, specially if their best marketing tool has vomited on their reputation. Nobody is god, not even 6-times world champ.Quote:

Im not talking specifically about reliability because in that department Citroen is definitely far from being the worse. However speed wise the car is just not there, and consequently Ogier is pushing far beyond the means of the car.Quote:

Even if it's true she's a public person and must display some restraint and dignity. The fact that the most powerful person in the world has been posting bullshit on social media doesn't mean it's a new norm to do that.Quote:

Are you taking a dig at me :)Quote:
