Good feeling on Shakedown. The roads are really representative of the rally so we worked with some set-ups to be prepared for the rally! https://t.co/mm57OxX2NC

Ogier on SD: “I was really happy during our pre-event test and now in shakedown. The feeling in the first run wasn’t fantastic but we did some small adjustments and I have to say I have a good feeling with the Fiesta on asphalt, at the moment better than on gravel,”
“The experience of the previous events is helping. In Monte-Carlo we had a little bit of dry asphalt and we’ve had more time for testing, so I feel more and more ready for each rally.
“The route is the same as last year and that was only six months ago, so it feels we’re running in a place where we have a lot of references already. Shakedown was very close and it could be similar during the rally."

Hayden's time is a bit of a surprise. Participating in San Remo did him well (on the shakedown anyway... The rally actual will tell the full story)

so the rally starts tomorrow....very interested to see the progress of Paddon (was kind of disappointed with his progess on tarmac last year) and Tänak...but i dont expect miracles from him because even he said after shakedown that this is his weakest rally.(in an interview to estonian media). TOP5 would be very good.
My dark horse for this rally is Breen. i think he could really surprise.#8 Ott Tänak - Martin Järveoja #8

Some big cuts there on the SD stage. Roads could be pretty dirty for those lower down the order if this happens on the rally. Advantage Ogier.
Other examples: Safari specialist Ian Duncan winning Safari 1994 in works Toyota. Mats Jonsson winning Sweden 1992 and 1993 with Toyota Sweden (only Sweden entered in '92, Sweden and RAC in '93)...
