If they could make it a 1-2-3 it would be incredible but this is Hyundai after all, something’s bound to go wrong, hopefully not but as we’ve seen over the past two seasons, it’s not over till it’s over.

Is Mikkelsen 8.49 behind Lindholm?
That is a serious chunk of time.

They will have to switch Tanak and Neuville. And let Tanak try and win the power stage (without Neuville going for it). 30pts against a few for Kalle is a big swing.
Ofcourse the championship is still a long shot, but Kalle is in a rut. He will be starting to feel a bit of pressure/possibly drive differently etc. He's also in a world of trouble in New Zealand if it's bone dry (the cleaning could be worse there than it is in Greece). Hyundai have to give Tanak every point available...
Regarding the power stage points something I've never really taken in before, there's 24 and 28 minutes between Rovanpera and Tanak and Neuville. They will go into the stage knowing not just his time relative to others and first run, but also his splits, and Thierry could take a decision as late as the final split point whether to back off a tad or not and still beat Rov. If they were friends and colleagues.
Also depends if Hyundai prefer manufacturers power stage points or not. 52 vs a poor result for Toyota. Will Taka be asked to do something? Game on.
Now that has been a fun rally! Friday with the Fords, now with the Hyundais... Sundays are normally just a survival, but it was fun anywa! I wonder if Kalle will start to fell the pressure for the last rounds...
Friday is for "friday heroes" - who can use their awesome road position because of partial or shitty season so far. Reality comes from saturday, in case others from usual leaders reached to usable start position. Only Loeb could survive Saturday from "friday heroes", because he is a hero, or the hero.
GG is fast. Lappi +2,7, or reccespeed.
