Meeke's season until Argentina was ok, some crashes (Monte, Sweden off), but win (with crash and other manufacturer car issues) and good speed. 4 crashes in a row in 3 rallies can't be excused, much less called "heroics".

You know what's also interesting, if you look on the last non-tarmac rally where Meeke had sustained performance you get Sweden (up to and including SS11).
Meeke was 5th, beating "2nd level" drivers including Sordo and Paddon (who was down after Monte). Sounds familiar doesn't it? Exactly same level of performance as we saw from whole Citroen team yesterday.

Mexico stands more and more out as lucky result, all other cars had overheating issues with temporary fixes done by limiting power. And Meeke's driving didn't result in an off until last corner and he survived that one.
