I have to disagree. The more difficult the conditions are the more driving skill will count. And rallying isn't about a single or two or three stages. Unless those are the only stages in the rally. The guy who has completed the course the fastest is the winner.

If there is snow mostly on 1st half of SS4, he'll lose time here.
Re: Rallye Monte Carlo 2014
SS-04 is underway now, now condtitons should be worth. First 9 kms patchy ice and slush, 3,5 km fresh snow and rest is wet with mud on cuts.
Re: Rallye Monte Carlo 2014
Ogier losing to both finns at first 1/3 of stage

Yeap, 12 seconds loss after 2 split to Latvala time wich is driving on 4 snows i think.
Re: Rallye Monte Carlo 2014

Re: Rallye Monte Carlo 2014
Splits look like they are working better...
Re: Rallye Monte Carlo 2014

Well, I understand that, but picking better tires has nothing to do with driving skills. Probably better weather crew.
