Great helicopter footage of Ogier, gives a good impression of those great stages there
Ogier 5 sec faster from 1st pass
What do you expect from that lucky bastard
Tanak really pushing!!! It was a pleasure to watch it!
1,2 faster than the first loop.
Tbh I was expecting Ogier to do better this afternoon after the morning pace (even without SS2).
That said Tanak-Neuville-Ogier with Meeke somewhere around is good for the championship.
nice stage by Meeke
team orders mood for Lappi. "Drive slow to the finish"
Sordo up to third, he's performing well
Ogier lost 2 positions at this stage
Good stage by Sordo. Huyndai #1 for this rally?
and still complains about starting order despite being hugely lucky on the first stage and he did not lose that much...Quote:

Sad to see how Lappi is so disappointed and he really shows it. Should remember that this is his 1st time in Argentina...
you got that right.
Official works dog! :)Quote:

I was shocked to see Mikkelsen leading after the second stage, his current position makes more sense.
There is pretty bad 4G coverage in Germany, don't You know? :DQuote:

The impact on SS3 caused suspension damage, which in turn caused a failure of the engine oil lubrication system. #RallyArgentina #WRC https://t.co/oKCpdpVz7t

That's nice but I was not joking. Outside of cities internet coverage is pretty bad in Germany, much worse than here in CZ.Quote:

Tanak flying again
Tanaks earlier spin small clip

Great day from Tänak! but it will be very hard for him tomorrow if the reports of rain are true.
anyway, big applause for today!
fastest 1st split from Breen
Breen 0,7 sec slower midstage
I can hear voices in my head, Tommi talking to Ogier:
Tommi: Do you want to drive Toyota now?
Ogier: Sure, I would love to.
Tommi: Too bad. No car for you, come back in 10 years, maybe .....
for your condition its normal.... just do not pay attention to them.Quote:

Obviously congrats to Tanak today. Expected a bit more from Ogier in the afternoon.
Others pretty much as expected in terms of pace given their road positions.. Too bad for Lappi and Mikkelsen tires off rim.
Some different conditions today would be nice imo, as long as they are similar to the whole field.
I'm trying very hard, but they keep coming stronger and stronger. Even pills are not helping.Quote:

Well, that's what makes rally driver more complete, and valuable. For sure good decision to move to Toyota.Quote:

Meeke doing well, Neuville was lost in the first loop but then improved in the second.
Ogier is doing what he's supposed to do, get points when he can't win and take advantage of eventual retirements and problems.
For the championship to get close though, Neuville and Tanak would need a 0 in Ogier's point table.
