    Impressive by Tanak, but ofcourse real rally starts tomorrow. Could be some big gaps imo....

    Visually Tänak looked by faaaar the slowest of all, seemed so slow i thought he will lose like 4 secs by the middle of the stage, and then in the end, that time.


    the rain is still falling, Neuville will be smiling his ass off while sleeping. Gonna be very interesting tomorrow.

    Without the spin Kajetanowicz could have had a very good start. 5th fastest overall time in the split with the Polo R5

    Thought the same watching Meeke. Presumed he was going to lose a bit of time as per on super specials as he looked slow, but came through fastest at the time. With conditions such a mess and the gravel section being difficult, it shows being neat and tidy was the way to go. Amazing where Tanak found that extra time (easily) against the rest of the drivers.

    That's how rallying often is. Spectacular is slow and vice versa.

    My thoughts exactly. Circling one roundabout, Ott's car was clearly (to me) understeering, also he was very cautious on jumps - i thought that he would be lucky to be in top 10. I know that smooth is often faster but even knowing that this drive didnt look fast at all

    Let's hope we don't lose a whole day at least....

    Did it rain heavily overnight?

    Looked to me very neat on the roundabouts, while most were sliding all four wheels on the roadway, Ott held it tight with inside front left wheel on the raised curbed section tight against the roundabout
