Yes, literally anyone can get a puncture here and Tanak only losing 50 odd seconds might be ok if others have to stop and change.
That said, with the way rallying is now such a sprint, a puncture has such a disproportionate affect on the result that I still find it weird we don’t have EMI tyres back. We only have 8 cars, so having a few of them taken out of the fight by a flat tyre seems madness to me from the promotion of the sport perspective.

Lowest point was probably when they had to put the top class drivers to run RX2e cars for the final races of the season, after the whole fire on the Lancias drama.
