    I think he meant if Adamo orders them or one of them to slow down to avoid risk and the loss of manufacturer points. If the drivers / driver will accept it.

    It's been said that since Toyota had to change the Yaris' rear-wing some of its superiority has reduced. Also having no 'benchmark' driver with the team now may make it harder for Ogier to know how his pace is in testing.

    Neuville seems very happy to have Tanak join his team, so probably knows how tricky the car is to set-up for newcomers, and how its optimised for his driving-style.

    I just give Neuville favourite.

    They could ask latvala or meeke to test it once more. They'll have their benchmark immediately.

    I think a benchmark driver might be required more than just once - there are 3 very different rallies coming at the start of the season. And I doubt Meeke and Latvala would be too happy to help out the guy that's just taken their seats...
