Roavnperä outpaces Veiby and other drivers in WRC2. Except for his podium contenders. What´s wrong with the others?

Has Veiby ever been fast or what? Come on! He has the same number of points as the unexperienced Pieniazek!

Do they mean that small stick holding the red/white plastic?
LOLz

Hypotetically if Boland (coming next) crashed into that old A6 I guess the owner would get nothing on insurance and possibly a lawsuit from organizer and/or Boland?

The reality is Mikkelsen, while quick, has only ever won a single rally on pure pace (Aus 2016), inheriting his other wins. Almost every single time he's been in the lead, he's made mistakes. Regardless of his speed, he cracks under pressure from behind during rallies, every single time (re Germany 2017, and I think Australia 2017 too).

Ogier spun in Austria 2016 giving win to Mikkelsen who did not crack. At this point Mikkelsen had no drive and was arguably under biggest pressure ever. The only time he really cracked from lead is Sweden 2015 afaik.

In Germany 2017 he lost a chance to fight Tanak on saturday morning due to tire choice and then made some mistakes trying to catch up, but still kept same spot. Again without a drive from that rally he was arguably under huge pressure and still got 2nd. Australia 2017 is hard to judge, was quite innocent being wide and it resulted in 2 punctures.

So I don't really see any clear pattern. It's rather when he is under career-threatening pressure he does well.

Interestingly this season he is together with Neuville the only one without rally-ending crash.

I know the Mikkelsen discussion is off topic, but here's a list of his good pace with Hyundai.
- Leading after day 1 in Catalunya 2017. First event in the new car
- Leading Australia until his double puncture
- Almost all Top 5 stage times and 3rd overall in Sweden 2018
- Leading Argentina 2018 until losing one place to Ott and then more to a puncture
- Leading Sardegna 2018 until gearbox issues

read the fia press conferance and answers from Ott about the ''hunter'' Ogier.

read the fia press conferance and answers from Ott about the ''hunter'' Ogier.

Two things stand out for me from the press conf:
1. Neuville saying how they had good performance on saturday when they dropped
from 3rd to 5th. Wut?

2. Makinem believes Latvala will be world champion one day.

Tommi must have had more than the usual number of drinks before the press conference if he's saying that...

2. Makinem believes Latvala will be world champion one day.

And I believe in extra terrestrials. Surely that's always Latvala's goal, but he must be more realistic now.
