OGIER 1st at the 3d passage

[EstWRC]

very even times now for the guys who did their 3rd run a much later, Tänak, Kalle and Evans all within 1 second

6.2 km in 2.50 min wow 🤩

[meh]

First I checked that M-Sport shows really nice pace, but no others have done their 3rd pass as well and now things are "normalized". Seems a bit Tänak vs Toyotas battle to expect.

WRC2/RC2 field is really interesting, quite many candidates for win.

My guess main fight in WRC2 will be bewtween Gryazin, Ostberg and Mikkelsen. Hyundai is too unreliable on these fast flowing roads (Solberg, Huttunen). WRC3 Lukyanuk could put up some good times, but its been long since he drove Skoda (or is it his first time in Fabia?), dont know, but one test before rally in new car isnt much to already compete at top. Will see.
There could be some surprises from local guys (good road position) especially I think Kaur could show some good pace.

EDIT: Just saw Lukyanuk is fastest Rally2 driver in shakedown.

There is very fast drivers on WRC3 and considering road position they could easily beat WRC2 drivers this weekend.

Shakedown is much faster than the actual stages

EDIT: 131 km/h for Kalle. Also 5s quicker than Tänak's fastest time last year.

Easily? No.

The R5 battle overall will be very interesting this weekend.
