It has probably already been mentioned here - It kind of reminds me of the 70's and 80's RAC rally early spectator stages.

Anyone has some decently working splits?
The "live timing" on WRC doesn't really update and the ones on live maps are a bit messy to watch since you can only see one split at a time.
EDIT: nvm they are here: https://sport.postimees.ee/wrc/splittimes
I think Ogier's comments appear harsher than they actually are. For him, I would find it totally understandable if he would find this seasons title "lesser" than his other 6. Particular when viewed against his 1st title, or the titles won with Msport which are standouts.
However when Neuville makes the comments like he has, it just sounds like sour grapes and a bit petty, considering he hasn't yet won a title himself (when he should've).
Imo a title is a title - whoever wins it deserves it. Whether 7 rallies or 16. Shorter rallies, or longer rallies. All the drivers this year have been in the same position, and Evans has made the best of it. In a shorter season, mistakes are penalised even more - and Tanak made a rally ending mistake in Monte and then another mistake in Mexico that cost him the win and a few more pts. Neuville had a very poor Sweden and then a rally ending mistake in Estonia. Both have had cruel luck as well with mechanical issues, but that's also a part of rallying. Ogier has had a mechanical in Turkey, but also has to look at himself for losing vital points when Kalle overhauled him on the power stage in Sweden, and when Neuville beat him in Sardinia.
Evans has done the best job so far and iirc has made no real mistakes. If he wins, I wouldn't view this as a tainted or lesser title. So i agree with King Carlos.
Why doesn't anyone use tire-warmers now? (F1-style electric ones) Banned in some way or just didn't think about it?
pretty wet and raining and still quite dark out there
Great to see WRC+ working very well on a circuit.
