    [WRC] Arctic Rally 2021

    M-Sport admitting they lose on fast sections

    Suninen saying they lost at worst 4s/km on flatout sections. They have managed to get split time wins on 3-4th gear sections. He’s afraid the engine upgrade won’t be enough. Suninen also reminds how equal they were with Lappi in Fiestas, and how good Lappi is now in WRC2.

    You never got any answer, but Bertelli was further in than Ogier.

    Rovanperä has just 1.8s in hand and, although he promised “I will do the best I can” on Sunday to keep his place, he admitted to being disappointed by his lack of pace.

    “Like I said before the rally if it [Hyundai’s pace] is coming from somewhere where you really cannot match it – it’s not mistakes or something, you just drive well and you’re not fast enough – it’s always difficult,” he said.

    “I felt this rally I was really doing a good job on many stages but we are just not on the pace.”

This year I can watch it more like explanation when it is actually problem. Of course, there is question - why this problem is still there. I admit, that during next rally the same problem could be quite weird.
    The excuse is pointless and even more useless to the new codriver. These talks are meant to be private, between you and the man beside you, I i magine these "communitaction" happen for every driver, but not once have I heard such relentless battering from a teammate to another. Afterall it is a team sport and bringing your teammate down my your own subpar driving isn't really something publicly commenting worth, but perhaps your own wallet "being the culprit".

    I'll give Neuville something. At night he's able to produce some outerworldly stage times. I remember at least Sweden 2017, Monte 2020 and now Arctic 2021 where he has been crushing everybody else on one night stage.

    But yes, yacking about "communication" doesn't help Wydaeghe to gain confidence and this whole problem started out of disrespect towards Gilsoul. So it's only on him and nobody else.
