    Such rationale makes no sense here. He can't catch Kajetanowicz or Henning on 15 km long stages.

    Yes, they are saying in Estonian media that Toyota noticed in service that it was a defective rim that may have caused the puncture and they are quoting Tänak saying: “it looks that way”

    edit: oh my bad he was 24min late after service so that led to late road position


    Katsuta start today with his normal O/A position.
    With 3 min gap but still overtake RC4 cars at the end

    I might be wrong then. Maybe it's for possible power stage televising?

    What can I say. What a rally. It is going to be hell of a battle tomorrow. Nice to see also chinese rally fans there. One of them have more than 2 million viewers on social media. Good promotion for rally.

    Hard to say. I only see stage times, you see the actual rally. In stage times the fastest Hyundai (Loubet) is currently in the 7th position, over 4 minutes behind the leader of WRC2. It is very far behind Skodas, Fords and Volkswagens.

    Thanks for sharing your impressions from the "trenches" of the rally!
