The fact Mikkelsen made what he said were "good changes" at service - yet is still nowhere - is a worry.

Really enjoyable battle between the two Italians out front. Luky very open about how he can't match them, but is still doing a good job.

Edit - Mikkelsen putting it down to not switching his brain from gravel to tarmac......, Says everyone is struggling with understeer but he's struggling more.

What did you expect from Veiby? Is it not his normal speed?

Great drive from Crugnola. Is it going to be the first ever victory for Hyundai in the ERC?

Certainly not Mikkelsen ! ;)

I don't know what's up with Mikelssen/Toksport. The position on the leaderboard looks worse than the time difference because this rally is ridiculously competitive but i'm sure Andreas can do better than this and we know the car can because there are several Fabias ahead of him on the leaderboard. Maybe the Michelin are a disadvantage here but again that can't be the only answer as Llarena, Marczyk, Andolfi and Tempestini are all in Michelin-Fabias and ahead.

I agree, MRF is crap on tarmac.

This rally shows the importance of getting Rally Grimstad, on the Norwegian championship calendar. It is so far the one amd only asphalt rally we have.

There are some asphalt minirallies that has been on and off.
But up here north, it is only Denmark that are best on Asphalt, the rest need more training from young age.
