    Why is Tanak going to drive with DMACK tyres? That is a shame for GB. Then we can't measure him against the best properly. Damn.

    Yeah, well, somehow funny to think Sainz using English pacenotes. But ofcourse most likely scenario.

    Last year Mikko did some testing with Scott Martin and they used English notes á la Colin McRae Rally.

    I agree, I was looking forward to this rally to see Ott competing with the big guys, but with DMack ...

    Well... Letīs put it this way. Itīs quite obvious that Ott Tanak would not drive Fiesta WRC in WRGB without DMACK tyres...
    Once it popīs, you canīt stop...

    Is it just a conspiracy theory of mine but ist it possible that by having Ott on DMacks they can to an extent artificially control his speed, ie. not make some of the guys look poor in comparison to him??

    i cant believe the people on this forum , everything is to do with a conspiracy . its because dmack are paying for the drive so they can have a talented driver against other top drivers on michelin end of story , no secret pack to make other drivers look good or bad

    Maybe this gonna be the breakthrough for Dmack. They have a new compound and you never know how good its is.

    It was just a test so it doesn't need to be all perfect between co and pilot. And Timo is working for VW so that was the easiest way to have a co for Sainz for this tests. I think Sainz drove the first Dakar's for VW in French because of Perin? And KKK wasn't he mostly driving with English notes ? On the top level u need to know a bit your languages

    True to that, and if he beats Matty Wilson even with this (and I think he will anyways those tires can't be so bad and with being the second official brand next year they need to have tires on a good level) than Matty will be even more ridiculed.
