Exactly! Especially as you can see on the photo of Hanninens damaged RR wheel, that brake disc is missing, brake caliper moved, so whole upright is broken... heavy impact is needed to make such damage.

well... it is a rally. you do not expect people to have the time to make sure they fix it properly. they could, or rather they are for sure able to make a better tool than the current ones...

i did not mention anything about fragile cars....

That's just an example I remember now, don't know earlier

Why is Lappi so slow? Now that he is factory driver, he doesn't have to risk? I'm disappointed.

Citroen sometimes have this advantage, like this one :D - Citroen GS - conos - YouTube

So Meeke is still pulling Sordo's pants down despite never driving the car competitively and not having done an event for over a year, and why doesnt have his seat? Oh yeh Sordo has more cash....disgrace!
