Here is a pressrelease from Østberg, in norwegian.
Someone maybe translate it If its interesting.
Its about the downshiftstroubles in his car.

I read this elsewhere... explains a lot.
But others here still wont believe and say he's just slow...

There's none so blind as them that dont want to see....

Sounds like a conspiracy theory to me

so fiesta wrc has a problem at their shifting system,and nobody else has undersand it.
Even the guys were faster from Ostberg at same rallies with fiesta wrc cars.

[N.O.T]

When was Ostberg fast and we consider him slow nowadays, Ostberg was NOTHING throughout his career, he had some potential but he is where he is because of daddy support.

If we bring back Hirvonen he is going to be faster than Ostberg.

When was the last time M-Sport had a decent driver?

Not for quite a while. And why do you think that is?

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Anyone else watched Ostberg's on-boards from Portugal and seen or heard any problems from the down-change/gearbox area ?

I've watched a few of the stages where he was complaining most and cant tell anything... I guess its all in the feeling.

Also cant compare with Tanak as the OB camera is behind the driver...

Ostberg 4th in the Driver's Championship in 2015, when he had a decent car (DS3)... 'Best of the rest' vs the mighty VW's.

If this makes Ostberg NOTHING, what does that make the others ?

It makes him consistent, less error prone than most his competitors. Speedwise he is average.
