so he went off because he hadnt got steering.Not lucky we can say.
Not that much Suninens fault here...
Of course bad luck also, but his mistake. You can not cut too inside.Quote:

But I would say a bit unlucky also.
I would like to see videos of others aproaching the corner

just bad luck in my opinion
driving to tree-stump is bad luck?Quote:

Rechecked, paused, rechecked, paused... I would say, he was.Quote:

I feared this would happen with Suninen when he said "I have to drive faster" at the end of the previous stage...
I would give him more seat time, then he could be so good
Small margins... a centimetre or two in and he'd probably have been fine. A harsh punishment after a fine (and just 3rd drive) in the Rally1..
Meeh... MaybeQuote:

Based on past we all feared it coming and it came. It was not just the sentense at the end of previous stage. For me it's "Friday hero" side-effect - on Fridays he shows good stage-times from good road position and it may feel like "oh I can do it!". Then on Saturday and further comes reality from equal road position "shit, what happened, on Friday I was able to do it, so I need to improve" and then overdriving happens under pressure.Quote:

You can imagine, what kind of cruising should take place if there could be no extra points for last stage.
Came in now.
Maybe Teemu did mistake. But he proved himself a Rally1 driver anyway.
Maybe biggest fault was the never given team order.
yes, don't chop his head off, or fire him from Hyundai, but maybe a bit more "encouragment" to finish the rally would have been goodQuote:

For Teemu, It was not tree stump, there are no tree stump in Chile like this. There is water pipe under the road and they are using vertical wooden poles around it to avoid erosion with heavy rain (Lappis place was similar thing made of concrete), so, he basically turned the wheel slightly too early and that got stuck behind this thing.
Greensmith was pretty on it, let's see what the others can do.
Sometimes a mistake might not be big, but the consequences are, it's just how rallying is. Cut 2 cm too much - broken suspension, retired. Spin the car 10 m into a field - hit nothing, carry on.
Suninen could have done better, but was also unlucky for these consequences.
Congratulations to Oliver and Elliot, so happy for them!
Porter kept saying Heller will do a bunch of rallies with the Puma next year, now after all the issues Heller says he has to think about it, maybe 1 rally :D
Very big congrat to the victory in WRC2.
Oliver is on his way to be mature driver, handling things around him better and better.
Now let's hope that Evans don't bin it like Suninen
edit: Evans finished, really strong second part from Rovanperä
So does this mean Toyota win the championship after the power stage?
YesQuote:

Well, prediction correct... ;) ;)Quote:

Yes. Ott and Martin did a very good job Congratulations to them and MSport.
Chile should be in the calendar if I was to decide.
Imagine what great title fights we could have had since 2020 without such a big difference in reliability in favour of Toyota...Quote:
