    I wouldn't read much into it. Loeb has bever been fast on SD if he didn't need to (SD was qualifying for road positions at one point). Also last year on Mexico SD he was one of the slowest then fought in the top during the rally. This is somewhat comparable situation since he said he has not driven on wet gravel for 6 years.

    Thats what I was thinking. A new rally is a level playing field and Loeb could've took on the rest for the win.

    But then years away from wet gravel seems could penalise him.

    Hopefully the rally stages may be drier.

    Just imagine how good this J. Martínez Fontana is, if he's able to beat both Kalle and Mads. Maybe he'll be the one replacing either Latvala or Meeke in 2020!

    Wet & slippery at SD today, Wales'ish almost. As in Sweden, not the most favourable surface for us, but this rally is the last rally before udated version for Portugal. I'm still confident regarding our chances to do well here in @RallyMobilChile #WRC2PRO #C3R5

    He set the time on a drying road after the 45ish minute break while Kalle and Mads did theirs before. Just like Mikkelsen, Tänak, Latvala, Evans and Loeb set their fastest times.
