    lol..i dont understand how you can say this, because if you dont remember then his rally lasted basically only for one stage and at that time he was leading the rally. His first split time on SS2 was only bettered by Paddon in the end.

    He was definitely struggling in sardegna on friday, he just couldnt get rid of the massive understeer. The same was in Corsica.

    In mexico all the Toyotas were struggling due engine overheating but he was still 3rd end of day 1 and only 11 secs from the lead.

    I know . No offense, just kidding. I think retirements due to mechanical failures, be it forced or not are most devastating for the driver. The rest can be managed more or less.

    I guess this must make your crystal ball prediction at least "a little bit" correct

    Mäkinen talks about Katsuta and Arai. Only one of them will be able to continue their challenge program for next year. Also, there's talks of one of them driving the WRC car in the Japanese WRC round...

    what an achievement only in their second year. Congrats!

    still some work to do to make the car more stronger. They will only use 1 joker next year because Tommi wants to use 4 jokers in 2020.

    Lets see.

    Can the car be developed without jokers?
