Cool! Mikkelsen with great tire strategy!

+- what he lost on previous stage, so it is question which strategy was better...

But in Addition SS9 and SS10 it was no advantage, so wrong choice.

[stefanvv]

yeah, the tyre choice for Mikkelsen was brilliant

But in Addition SS9 and SS10 it was no advantage, so wrong choice.

Probably it was VW strategy to have cars on different tires.

[jonkka]

Why such differences?

Driver has better car, he is better driver, his tyre choice is better, he has more commitment, he knows the road better.

Is that what the strategy of the teams who is involved?

Difficult to say, perhaps in some cases.

Is this the regulation that promotes this situation?

No.

is this the level of drivers who is involved?

Yes.

Is this the costs which prevent the struggles more intense??

I don't understand the question.

Mikkelsen: Of course we had the best tyres on this one. It looks like we gained some time back on that downhill section - I really pushed. Overall I'm not sure it was the right choice

imho was a choice which gained time from Ogier,considering both stages (9 & 10)

[cosmin_sb]

after 2 stage today:1 Ogier 2 Meeke +20 3 Mikkelsen +29 4 Latvalla +35

[dupanton]

Mikkelsen gained time on Neuville and Latvala, both stages together, but not compared to Ogier and Meeke.
