    I think he would certainly be equal to Ostberg if not faster.

    Difficult to say, perhaps in some cases.

    No.

    Yes.

    I don't understand the question.
    Thanks for your answer. About the last question, my thought is that the very high cost of this sport is can be at the origin of choice to be at the arrival for some championship points but not to break the car?

    Suarez passed Giordano, hitting him, and still 6th fastest, only 0,7s off Meeke's time!
    Suarez showing his talent!

    Giordano not really happy

    That logic most certainly applies to final day or two if differences are so large that it's next to impossible to gain places by trying like a mad man. In those situations teams instruct their drivers just to reach finish.

    This is nothing new, however. Richard Burns immortalized such tactics in 2001 when he became champion with just one win against three drivers with three wins. Consistency is the key, never throw away points that you're sure to gain over points that you're very unlikely to get by risking it all.

    What do you mean 'the long stage'?
