Nonsense!

It's caused by a lack of fresh outside air fed to the windscreen & the lack somewhere to let the damp inside air out.

Condensation on any surface is caused by the temperature of that surface being below the dew-point of the air in contact with it. Dew point is nothing to do with the temperature of the air, it's entirely due to the partial pressure of the water vapour in the air. The air inside the car has a higher dew-point than the outside air because there are two people breathing and sweating inside. All you need to do is to keep replacing the inside air with outside air

Good morning, any idea what the weather condition is like for the moment on stage 5?

Seems rain has stopped, but heavy fog on stage 6 apparently

Evans now one second slower compared to Kalle at first split

Nobody else is folowing this interesting rally for the moment?

Don't worry, I am

Neuville looking very fast

Taka again on great pace, let's see if he can make it to the end of the stage this time

Neuville 15,5 sec faster compared to Evans, good run

Off for Ogier, but not too much time lost

Tänak Ott - Järveoja Martin
"New issue, some electric problem, no anti-lag and throttle is in road mode."

Taka fastest man trough

Luckily only two days left with this piece of crap

Munster again on good pace

Very good performance by Munster sofar, really close to besttime of Gryazin. Mikkelsen playing it safe with the advantage he has. I still think notional time for Munster on stage 2 isn't fair.

Neuville went off

Oh Thierry….

So, that is it, Evans can now just control the rally, with teammate Ogier behind him. Seems Toyota is going to win this time in Japan

This series is just so dead. I mean rally1 class

It’s sad

Neuville beats Solberg's ,,record''..? D

Another besttime for Taka, gutted for what happened this morning

That´s true! There should be more teams and more better drivers.

Another great time for Munster, three Rally2 cars on places 4,5 and 6

They should appeal it.

Could Thierry ever figure out how to keep it on the black stuff?

Well, he's won a number of tarmac rallies so... yes?

Neuville off https://x.com/officialwrc/status/172...C1kV5QC61vX5Xg

Another besttime for Taka, really strong drive in the afternoon

Munster is really starting to impress lately. Great day from him also

consistently

They corrected Munster's time on SS2 ,so now he is only 3sec behind Mikkelsen

Good morning.2 wrc 2 cars in top 5 , hyundais drama early in the rally.

I think top drivers should take a deep breath.
Like Mirek says, this isn´t wrong conditions. This is rallying.
If you can´t handle this, why drive like you have to win every stage? Where have tactics gone?

Cancelling stages because of heavy rain is not what the sport of rallying needs.

BTw. Go back to square one: make Rally2 cars top class. In six months everyone have forgot the expensive hybrid cars...

Please stop already with this “make rally2 top class”. It really is a broken record

It isn’t going to happen and it isn’t a solution

Neuville

https://x.com/dirtfishrally/status/1...C1kV5QC61vX5Xg

Ogier 6 minutes late out of service and 1 minute penalty

Well, maybe you´re happy with the current status then?

I´m not.
