On Corsica 2017 Ogier had real technical issues on Sunday that cost him 2nd place on the penultimate stage. In the regroup before PS he refused to say if they fixed it. Then on PS the car was fine and he took back 2nd place from Sordo. Did Sordo push less because of that? Impossible to say, but there could have been some doubt.
So Ogier is no stranger to mind games.
That said I believe there could have been a small issue but the effect was mainly psychological for Ogiers confidence.

I know, I know, basing my whole assumption on a single rally and a single interview is wrong, and you made all the correct points. But it's still not a secret that Makinen has fallen out of favor with Latvala since last year, according to other interviews. My point is that he doesn't want to really keep him, so he might be playing with his confidence to convince the Japanese that it's time for a change.
And sure, Latvala is experienced in Sweden, but Tanak was faster last year on pure pace again. Same thing happened on Latvala's home rally.

Nope, that's how fast it is.
I was at the same place as WRC TV on that fast combination on Savalla in Spain but their camera was sitting still on a tripod, the difference was quite big.
It also depends a bit on frame rate, i think think a higher frame rate and shutter speed makes it look slower, i use 24 FPS."Die with memories, not with dreams" Scott McIsaac

All 3 manufacturers are pushing for things to remain until the end of the 26. Not even the goons running the WRC will be stupid enough to push them out by forcing new regs for 25
