Plus the revised points system has had universal praise.

Good job WRC, credit where it's due.

I agree completely. Good day for WRC today.

Yeah. No one is complaining about new points system.

Actually that’s true.
I have to say, seems Hankook did a good job. Am I right that Munster was the only puncture amongst the Rally1 cars? I know a couple knocked off the rims by going off, but actual punctures seemed very low.
I think a full dry tarmac rally will be a test, that’s where the quality of the rubber will be tested the most I suspect.

wtf. Neuville got only two points less than Tänak in the end?

Huge gifts from Munster and Taka for him

You mean Pajari and Taka, Munster was well behind.
In the end, Neuville finished only 1 place behind Tanak and they scored the same on Sunday. Tanak was last of the trouble-free drivers, Neuville was first of the troubled ones. Well, apart from McErlean who was just bringing it home.

Monte Carlo is unique in so many aspects.

Any videos form the snowy parts of Turini?
