Makinen confirming the Toyota engine joker has made a difference.. more driveable and torquey. Said it will also be even better in Spanish tarmac.
Cooling problem also addressed so should be ok for Turkey.

I googled it. Seem that it means braking into the first part of the turn. Which is a bit strange since Citroen said last year he wasnt left-foot braking. (maybe they meant "tapping" the brakes).
Anyway he said he stopped doing it in SS6 and suddenly he was fastest Hyundai with similar time in next stage too.
Doesn't change that Hyundai is getting beaten by both Toyota and MSPORT on their home rally.

As far as I read it is what we call left foot braking to balance the car.
In a racecar it used to je called tiptoe when using right foot if you need to clutch at the same time.

Ogier at end of last stage saying he's happy with the new aero and the car chassis, so seeming to indicate he's maybe not so happy with the power.
Is there an engine upgrade coming ?#M-SPORTER

Ogier's car engineer (who is Czech by the way) told to mediasport/ewrc crew yesterday that according to him the aero changes are not expected to be felt that much by the driver. He was anyway confident that they are strongly prepared. He also said that except the aero the car of Evans is identical and even the settings is nearly same.
