Evans got back to service
E: and they managed to repair it on time.
Yes, it is actually possible, that would be a comeback worth to talk about.Quote:

For me the remarcable performance this rally is Neuville so far, looks like he made a step up on gravel lately. You can see he's really pushing too.
The negative impression is sadly the idiot spectators, not sure if you can even blame the organisers, if the idiots go and pick fights with the marshalls, what could they do, have police everywhere ready to beat them like football hooligans?
Can't see times on wrc.com for SS10, am I the only one with this problem?
spoke too soon about Neuville....
For some reason I thought this will happen
You have to drive over the limit to fight with the Toyotas
Shame
Once again Thierry made traditional Neuville mistake, when leading!
Don't think you can blame the driver in this case.
So another Ogier vs Kalle row and fight incoming ? :D
Remember rumors started after Kenya that they don’t get along anymore
Well, he had to push and go for the win if he wants to get closer to Kalle.
Too bad, but happens.. most likely without braking into the hole, everything would be ok..
Same for me , back to ewrc i go, SS10 now showing on WRC.comQuote:

Yep. That’s why I put them 1-2-3 in my Pickems and based on Kenya which is also very rough.Quote:

Ogier seemed pretty pleased he only has Rovanperä to fight, in other news, game over in the manufacturers title although I’ll admit it was Toyota’s to lose coming here.
Only a puncture will deny them that.Quote:

Add Hirvonen to that list.Quote:

Thierry Neuville doing Thierry Neuville things... 🤷
That was it for this year's Acropolis... Another Toyota win...
Then Tänak’s never to blameQuote:

Unfortunately he is just not at the same level than World Champions.
Am i wrong or Huyndai's suspension is one of their weakness ? I recall a large number of occurences when such problem occured. Of course it is a driver's mistake to begin with, but maybe it is fragile - at least more than the Toyota "tank" ...Quote:

As you probably understand every driver attacks corners in different ways. And this wasn´t any driver error in that sense he did smth wrong.
Sometimes there's a hole or rock on the line and that's rally. He didn't go wide or do some aggresive cut. He was braking where he needed to brake, unfortunately for him there was a water covered hole that was deeper than apparent at that point.
I get that some people are fans of drivers and there's some antagonism but for me it's absurd to blame the driver in this case. If you consider this driver error then you can go back and reconsider many times other drivers hit rocks on the line and so on. I will not say more on the matter.
We can also go to the conspiracy theory and since we know for a fact that Neuville is the team leader, car designer and president of Hyundai it's his fault that the suspension was too weak because he didn't design a good enough suspension arm, he should do better next time! (joking)
Braking was on point in particular case, there is an almost square left turn right after.
Pure unluck if You ask me, no signs of driver error.
Such a shame, I enjoyed thierry-seb-kalle fight and now the same old Toyota story..
Shame the ford is so unreliable. Podium was definitely possible for Ott
When Hyundai broke is Neuville's fault, when Toyota broke is bad luck of the driver...
