    This is impressive from Lappi considering he's not driven a wrc2 car in years, and I believe this is first time driving the VW R5?

    That said this was the slowest stage of the rally.
    Yeah and that's exactly where Toyota with their short wheel base should excel.

    I agree that Hyundai seem to have done their homework well in this rally.

    are you sure that they have shorter wheelbase?

    Historically with the 2017 cars Hyundai has always been faster on the more twisty stages and Toyota on the more open ones. Despite the wheelbase and despite the Hyundai being more stable. Likely due to aero.

    Yes he is doing very well, though with changed road positions it seems to be different than yesterday.

    Another thing is that fast snow/gravel is Lappis best surface and with no plan for rest of the year he has no other choice than do well.

    Kaur with a good pace. If I remember correctly he was always fast on Estonian national events also.
