    Pack it in Mirek.

    1. I didnt say that.

    2. Tanak said his tyres were a big advantage and his times prove it.

    They aren't special, D-Mack tyres are just softer than Michelins, be it hard or soft compound. But to say it is huge advantage, hardly.

    When Abbring wasn't crashing his times were more impressive than with the old Hyundai World Rally Car.. maybe because he was the test driver for the R5 he is more comfortable with it.

    Yeeehuuuuu! What an amazing weekend, just a shame about those little problems on friday but other than that superb weekend, especially today when Tänak won all stages.

    Expected a lot more from Meeke to be honest and really really good to see old Neuville back in the second half of the season. Paddon again admitted that he has work to do because his style is just so flamboyant for these kind conditions but he wasnt far away from podium.

    Another rally to forget for main m-sport guys and you barely noticed Sordo.

    I don't think it's just you. As far as the UK is concerned, it's a common them on many motorsport websites & forums; WRC just isn't getting much interest as it once did. WRC is miles behind F1, BTCC, MotoGP/WSBK/BSB, WEC/Sportscars - even the boring Formula E gets more interest. Our 'flagship' event this weekend is pretty much invisible, which doesn't help.

    10-13 identikit events is not what made the WRC the great series it once was. What we now have we're stuck with.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???
