Rally Portugal 2022

But he stopped just after the startline?

Ogier started the stage and then stopped... well, if he is waiting there now and start after Evans and Rovanperä, then he gives advandance for Evans to have 8min time cap for getting rid of dust.

What´s going on with Ogier? Dusting up for someone?

Amazing stage from Ott with first on the road

How do you see that? If he starts after Kalle and Elfyn, what advantage does he give to Elfyn?

Taka also starting to loose some time now

I think I misunderstood his starting position or I'm not sure about that at the moment - my theory, if Ogier starts BEFORE Evans and then just don't drive the stage, Evans will have 8min cap and less dust.

Edit: but seems he started before Sordo, so now Sordo gets clear-view benefit. From team-tactic point of view it's worst position - instead of benefiting Taka, Evans or Rovanperä he benefits Sordo.

Ok, i understand now:)

Ott could get even Breen and Loubet today but it will be difficult with him cleaning the line on second runs
