Team orders for Tanak..
Too early in the season.. fk Abiteville
Lol fuck Hyundai an their stupid team orders.
Should have told Neuville not to push when he had noone to catch...
Might as well turn off the TV now, sun is shining outside..
I'm glad Ott made it public tho
The "read between lines" here can be, that Hyundai plays for Neuville's drivers title and manu's title.
This season Škoda has been far from being the dominant force of the past.Quote:

As it stands after Today:
Neuville 110
Evans 96
Tanak 94
Didn’t expect anything different coming into this season…This is where a 4th manufacturer would come in handy.Quote:

Im 100% sure they wouldn’t have told to Neuville to hold back and not fight. Absolutely sure
Or mind games, Seb backs off.. Ott pushes.Quote:

It’s a team game, if you drive for the team then you have to play.Quote:

Seb is far too old fox to fall for such tricks.Quote:

Do you consider Tanak "retard" too because he agreed to keep it safe and not pushed too much?
Yes but it’s too early for such a decision IMOQuote:

Here you are. He agrees with the team. Cant match Ogier.
I hope at least Tänak can push tomorrow
Clearly abiteville sent another message..
That stage end comment was full of ironyQuote:

Perhaps change a car, oh wait, their aren’t anymore options.
So Ott simply agrees with team and all that moaning on forum was for nothing? lol.
It's going to be Seb wins the rally but Ott scores most again isn't it.
Hahahahaha Ogier comment
He agrees with us.
Not moaning, annoyed we’re robbed a (good) fight for the victory.Quote:

To me it looks like Ogier is getting frustrated that drivers and teams care less and less to fight him for rally "wins". Both since he drives part time and because you can get very good points by finishing 2-3rd and instead focusing on Sunday points.
First signs were in Croatia.
And what does he expect? It's pointless for full season entries targeting the titles to fight with part timers having fun. Too much at risk...
I think he's a bit mad about not beating Ott fair & squareQuote:

We also don't know how uncomfortable he feels in the car after having a full rally-long fight.
For a rally fan, it is boring to follow. So, thank you for the "free Saturday evening", Mr Abiteboul.
Quite some drive by Rossel
