    And what can we say about Breen's result? A slight disappointment, isn't it?

    Athough he seems quite happy:
    "It's not often I would be happy with finishing 4th, but after all the hard work, the testing, it has been immensely satisfying to have been competitive with our MRF Tyres! Both the tyres & the i20 R5 performed faultlessly, we still have some work to do but thank you MRF!"

    Honestly, on hot tarmac, I thought the MRFs could be worse and he'd be nowhere. So not too bad. I'm quite impressed that Lindholm was only a minute behind him though.

    Yeah can’t compare Breen with others because of the tire difference.

    Same goes for Lindholm, he never pushed 100% in this rally.

    If MRF is OK in Liepaja both will be much stronger there.

    But mission is accomplished, MRF has gotten a lot of data, and compared their tyres with both Pirelli and Michelin after stages. Number of pictures, film and rubber analyses have grown. Next asphalt rally they will have new compounds to test!

    Talking of tyres, they pointed out on the live programme that Luky is back on Pirelli this year. He used Michelin last year but Pirelli before that. Perhaps a factor in him being a little off colour last year.

    Nice rally and a great way to resume international rallying; congrats to Roma organizers and the ERC.

    Hope Breen and the young Solberg will be able to improve and give a proper figth to Luky in the next events, otherwise the series will be a walk in the park for the Russian.

    Congrats to Torn for ERC3 win but also to Antunes for the figth he gave all rally long. Despite the last stage off he clearly show to deserve a place in the series; now it’s time for our ASN to back him properly. Força Pedro!

    Anybody who was there as a spectator? How was it different to visiting rallies before Covid? On videos it didn't look much different

    Same for me. I was quite positively surprised with the MRF crews pace.
