Two aspects:

- "Fame" is only there if someone actually fights you. See Sweden where Fourmaux didn't really care he was 3rd overall in the end cause he got points for 2nd on Saturday.

- Imo the...

Sorry, but you are just as bad as the RallyTV crew.
Talking about fight for "win" for tomorrow or about how dramatic it is that Fourmaux is now closed to Sordo.

I feel like they (and you) are...

Rovanpera crash reminds me of the one he had in Finland last year.

Tanak was complaining about car not being perfect even when he had 40s lead after first day in Toyota.

That proved that it is perfectly possible to run an electric rally car that is not insanely slow and boring (looking at Corsa-e).

Btw. Baumschlager himself said that the Austrian event schedule...

That is indeed very strange. Before the season he said 5 rallies (4 tarmac+1).

Acropolis was by far the most logical, based on recent results. Yes historically he has good results in Poland, but...

Not very good result, at the same time it basically perfectly matches Suninens CER last year. Just like his result in Monte was a copy of Lappi's 2023 there.

Mikkelsen had a rally in Italy with...

Exactly. Fourmaux has a history of stupid mistakes on Sunday when nothing is at stake...and then does exactly the same thing again.

1 Neuville 2 Ogier 3 Evans 4 Tanak 5 Mikkelsen 6 Katsuta 7 Munster 8 Rossel mknight

Even worse in manu champ. Toyota got 44 and Hyundai, in a rally where Hyundai essentially collapsed.

I find it extremely funny how Fourmaux is taking second podium and massive points by essentially driving around 5th place in speed on all his rallies.

That said steady approach was exactly what he...

By now Tanak has a very long history of cars breaking at the front end due to "bad luck". Yaris, Puma, i20, doesn't matter.

Sure sometimes there is some luck involved but his driving style and...

Lots of drivers seemingly avoiding bets events of their hardest competititors in WRC2 this year. Solberg not even there and Greensmith not nominated.

Only Solberg is a real option out of these, for multiple reasons and tarmac is his worst surface (just check Monte again this year).

(Hopefully) he will do a full proper (and paid) WRC2 this year...

Simple fix. There need to be overall points awarded for total time after Sunday. Ditch Saturday points and move them to the end.

An adjustment could be to increase these back to "normal" levels...

Afaik Monte was with same team. So more like first "nominated" event. His car was also ran by Skoda Motorsport in 2020.

Anyway, in Sweden he was the only top guy in a Fabia. So kinda hard to say...

Well, when we get to rough gravel rallies the real fun will start.

Something like Turkey 2020 came to mind. After Saturday Evans was 4th, then in Sunday all the guys ahead got punctures (or...

So "no team orders" at Toyota lasted one rally.

Oh, not easy to read. Seeing that Neuville was behind Rally2 after leg 1 here and Lappi was behind three Rally2 after leg 1 in Japan while Mikkelsen was never behind Rally2 overall in Monte.
...

So you want to drop Neuville then?

If you are serious I suggest you look at Lappi's results on tarmac, like on Monte a year ago.

Moving Saturday points to overall on Sunday would eliminate Fourmaux cruising today.

The stupid part of the new rules comming to action.

Evans might even get first overall time today and then he will stand on top of podium while Lappi will get points for first place for Saturday....

There is nothing "on". Fourmaux gets more points from today unless he crashes
The gap has nothing to say at all for Sunday.
