Rally Wrc Monte Carlo 2017

[Allez Andruet]

I'd call JML lucky too. His stage times were so so and somehow he finished 2nd. So good drive without mistakes, but lucky end result.

I still don't get what makes him lucky in this case. It's rallying we're talking about here - it's not about stage times, it's about the end result.

Personally the only things people actually seemed to get right were;
Sordo was slow
Breen was great
Tanak was unlucky
Ogier was very lucky
Paddon will feel terrible
Toyota/Latvala were lucky

It was an entertaining rally, but for some reason this rally brought out some very silly flippy floppy comments.

Yes, there were a few:

Sordo was slow
Breen was great
Toyota/Latvala were lucky

I have a hard time deciding if Hanninen's crash was unlucky or if he went in too fast.

too fast. but if I see it correctly, he blocked the wheels under braking and went straight into the tree. perhaps he could have avoided it if he had stopped braking, like most other drivers.

yet, he's only 2:15 slower than ogier. if you look at times from other years, that's not unusually much for monte carlo.

Ogier 3:49:53.1
Mikkelsen +1:54.5
Neuville +3:17.9

It's a Corsica type thing. The stages are winding and long, which makes for large gaps.

Someone had a GoPro in the bank Meeke hit?Could it may have causen the suspension break?

It was actually the right-rear suspension that was damaged. This is from when the car spun and the rear end hit the bank on the inside of the corner. Surprisingly enough, the right-front suspension seemed ok.
