lets see at next stage if Paddon can go faster.
Ucci 2,1 faster from Paddon.
Problems with timing. We have to wait for more times. Scandola and Perico both finished the stage.
What happened to miracle infant ?? i thought he was the best thing after baby jesus and not a tomato can...
Still too young to be thrown around by a Korean guy ?
I'm impressed by Paddon, he has a good pace and is not far behind at all. Let's not forget he isn't a tarmac specialist. This also shows the level in WRC is very high (at least the first 6 or so).
Also shows that the R5 cars are quite equal I think, at least the Hyundai is not so far behind, if it is.
That's already impossible. Rovanpera had a puncture again on SS8, lost nearly 4 minutes and dropped down to the 19th position overall. In the meantime Andreucci won 3 stages in a row and leads the rally.

Rain started in Sanremo town and occasionally also in the hills but most of the roads are still dry. Hard to choose tyres now.
I'm not following the rally (bussines trip during weekend-grrrrr..), but when I opend the results, I was expecting Paddon to be in a safe lead. After all he is a WRC driver....local rally should be a "walk in the park" for him. Not to be behind 52 year old driver. So, Andreucci still a surprise for me.
Try currently (12:30) but the dry weather is all the more incomprehensible.
dry path although drips on the evidence. The next test, the longer, has some wet traits, especially the final descent. But situation all the more uncertain.
It is about to start the last act of this 64.Rallye Sanremo which remains very uncertain and treacherous for the weather pattern. Crews have chosen all the more variegated rubber solutions, although the majority has chosen a solution that does not require a lot of rain
Ucci again faster 1,4 from Paddon

ss11 is last stage
Miki Biasion, driver of "zero" trailblazer "dry for 15 km, then more intense rain on the Hill, but without puddles and rivulets of water."
Confirmed by persistent rain after the Hill, for the final descent
Ucci in finish, time 17:23,2 is more than one minute slower than first pass.
Edit: Paddon also finished.
Ucci took another 5,4 sec from Paddon and finished 38,6 sec ahead at the rally.
Congrats to Ucci! good learning for Paddon as i understand this Ucci guy is really good.

Campedelli, Nucita, Lim and others didn't finish.
Looks like Kalle learning in hard way, I suppose switch surface if far harder than start from zero...
Hayden Paddon @HaydenPaddon
Mission accomplished - P2. Feeling more comfortable on Tarmac. The speed of Italian Champs is world class. Big thanks to the team.

Tricky Rally Sanremo is now over! Even if the race didnt go as we hoped, we still learned a ton and we will be stronger in the next one!
