Weather:
So, Like you see from photos, rain is not very likely ;)
Morning today will be a bit cool and almost calm. But luckily first 2 stages are in relatively open landscape, maybe only a few hundred meters at the end of SS1 is in the shade. and short sections on the second stage. Wind should be OK for third stage already :) Temperature in the morning nice, around 20..23 degrees and by noon it will be 26.. 28 degrees. However, road is not so abrasive as in Mediterranean rallies, should be better for DMack.. and rally is faster. and some later stages are completely under the forrest, so, road is not so hot.

VW orders their drivers to go for the win https://www.autosport.com/news/repor...out-with-a-win
Asked if he thought his DMACK tyres would cope with the heat, hard surface and long stages, he replied: "They're as black and as round as the others. Why not?"
lol, typical Tänak

Dmacks were ok in Poland, very hot was there
I believe they are all taken by @world, the ones you criticize constantly. Funny how quickly things change in "god"-world... one day vw s not going anywhere, the next day they are... one day a photographer is the burnt bottom of the failed dish in the saucepan, the next day, same photographer is an "actual rally photographer".
Can't be easy to speak in absolutes all the time when you are wrong so often.
