we are comparing cars/teams here... if a guy who never achieved anything speedwise in sweden is 1 minute ahead of a previous winner and always a contender for the win shows how much the difference is between a professional manufacturer team and an assortment of amateur villagers who got a fluke result just thanks to latvalas ability in sweden and fords coward decision to go for the points. during Day2 where all was pushing Latvala was slower than everybody and without the cancelled stage the situation could be much different going into day 3...
but as i said you just scrap the surface. You have a month to enjoy your naked kings garment... then we can see who is who.Last edited by N.O.T; 13th February 2017 at 13:50.

We all should be happy that Ogier didn´t choose Toyota, he is better driver than JML...

Ever heard about this little thing called road order? Maybe you should google it and read what effect it has in rallying.
And you are also saying that Ogier and Tänak making mistakes trying to catch/match Latvala was a coward decision by ford?
I think i misphrased my thought a little bit wrong.
What i meant to say was that Mikkelsen was better than Latvala last year because Latvala had a slump, not because Mikkelsen improved that much (although he did improve). Now that Latvala is back on form it would be a far stretch suggesting that Mikkelsen could have achieved what he has.Last edited by onemanband; 13th February 2017 at 14:51.

Why was Ogier so slow in Sweden? He had 2 PETs but still didn't manage to win a single stage. Was it only lack of experience in the car or is there more behind it?
