Well there are two main options...
a) Loeb and Mikkelsen suddenly forgot how to drive on tarmac over the course of 1-2 rallies. (Mikkelsen from 2nd in 2017 Germany in C3 to 7-9th times in 2017 Spain in I20, Loeb from 2018 Spain win to 2019 Monte where he was slowest WRC on dry tarmac).
Btw. Loeb was beating everyone when on gravel tires on tarmac sections in Spain 2019 (road position shouldn't matter on those sections), just 3 months ago.
b) Hyundai tarmac car is rather specific
------------------
b) seems more and more like the clear answer with every new rally where Loeb/Mikkelsen stuggle on tarmac while doing fine on gravel. Tanak's outing over the few stages seems more like confirming b) than a) as well.
But, as mentioned before there are close to no tarmac rallies this year, so it might not matter much how the car is on tarmac. With Neuville winning here it is again less likely they will do some massive changes to it. What does seem likely is that Sordo will drive in Germany and Japan.

(from French forum) Ogier cant swallow that he lost from Neuville.
Delecour who asks Ogier what he missed overall "the risk taking honestly, we did not dare to take as many risks as Thierry, when the conditions were delicate this is where we lost the longer. And hey, that's true to my course of action, I won the Montecarl several times, staying most of the time in my comfort zone, there we see that this morning again he is still hitting a low wall, it breaks a rim uh I mean when it wants to pass it passes but it will not pass every day it's clear ".

Is it the first time 1st position on Power Stage is tied (counting to hundredths)? Is it still a shared stage win?
Hi, anyone have experience with this route https://mapy.cz/s/bedudugeme from Oschiri to Monte Lerno stage - hairpin on 17km from start? If it´s doable by normal car? Thanks.
