    Actually, all tactic depends how first ones are doing. If Tänak is doing really good time, then there is no point for Latvala and Meeke to push. If Tänak happens to make some mistake or something, then there it makes sense to drive fast with hope to take points away from Ogier and Neuville (but it does not sound realistic in this case).

    The same with Hundayi and Citroen.

    Rallies almost always used to be like this by the last day. Massive gaps, only a few top cars left, nobody pushing...
    Many years on the RAC rally you would have survived the weather for 4 days and the last day was like a procession...boring to spectate.
    Thankfully this is rare now...

    before last SS
    Overall
    P10 Kajto
    P11 Greensmith +7,9

    Both are leading their own "class" but who wants 1 real WRC point ?
    Does M-Sport want that New Fiesta is first time fastest R5 ?

    greensmith isn't going any further i think.

    Sun 12:05 - Greensmith off after flying finish
    Gus rolled his Fiesta just after crossing the flying finish line of SS16 - the car is heavily damaged but both he and Elliot Edmondson are okay. Rotten luck - he was leading WRC 2 Pro up until then.

    Do this on rallys where large gaps are expected (like RMC or Turkey). On closer rallies, they can't afford not to push on the last day.

    Try it on 3 rallies next year as an experiment, see how it goes.
