Vodafone Rally de Portugal 2017 [May 18-21]

Latvala asked the team to tell him when Neuville was close but never heard anything.
Neuville passed him after the 1st split. Split 2 and 3 you mean i guess? Could be stress maybe, damage to the car after nearly going off 3 times...?
The corrected time was ok since he was 2 up on Ogier, lost 5 and got a time 5 behind. Should have been 2 sec better really.

Yes, splits 2&3, my bad. In the highlights though have sad Neuville lost ONLY 7 seconds being after Latvala. What is Latvala's fault if Neuville get stressed/had some car damage? How come Tanak didn't had them? If Neuville is compensated, so should be Tanak, simple as that.

Like all organizations, you need to appeal if you want something done.

The state does not issue you a passport if you don't ask for one...

This is a sport and everyone participating should put under same RULES.

Putting on a mirror takes about as much time as putting your pants on in the morning.

May be the mechanics were too busy changing his gearbox?!?

They are... If you appeal.
Just like in the real world where the rest of us live.

If you and your friend both got parking tickets in error, you both have to appeal and you will both be treated equally by the law.

Same here.

Yes he lost 7 sec to Sordo with the corrected time. Haven't seen it yet but maybe it has something to do with the Toyota team not making a mistake and got Latvala stopped so Tanak could pass and not sit right behind for 5km like Neuville did? Tanak didn't loose any time to speak of anyway.

Dunno why everyone is moaning about Neuville rightfully getting some time back. Think a lot of you guys are worrying about Neuville smashing it tomorrow now he's in a position to hunt down the win

It's more like a footballer going to the ground in the box like a dying swan after an obviously unintentional contact.

Define "any time to speak of".

Neuville gets 12s, so if you loose 11s it's no problem? How about 5s or 2s? Rallies and podium places were decided by less in both Argentina and Corsica.

An even time loss through the stage, he was 1 sec down on Sordo on the 1st split already and had some damage that made the car difficult to drive, hard to get time back then anyway.
Lets just watch the onboard when it's up and judge then shall we

So Neuville got stressed Toyota team couldn't warn Latvala in time and protest about it. Are You serious?
