    Yep when Tanak and Latvala cut as the only two top drivers in Corsica and get a puncture it's the fault of the rim.
    (Meeke and others had "don't cut" and Latvala even said it at the end that he shouldn't have cut).

    EDIT: Btw. Evans in Fiesta lost the win due to puncture on PS there. But yeah Toyota did some rim redesign.

    Anyway besides trolling...

    Turkey 2020 is the best comparison cause the Michelin tire was used for ages, yet "all" drivers got a puncture in the stage.

    I think last year Antti showed some stats comparing punctures on Michelin and Pirelli with 2017+ cars and it was the same.

    Sure, maybe with Rally1 there are more punctures, but it's also a different car with much more hp and more weight. So following the previous logic we should blame FIA right?
