Isn't Tanak supposed to be the new Vatanen.. the fastest man? Meeke's fastest time on Ouninpohja by 14s was all road position. Your questioning his speed now. OK, got it..

You obviously don't know to much about Rally GB. When the wet slate surface turns polished. you cant get mechanical grip, on top of that, we all know what happens after Poland when the car has no grip.

If he cant get a result on his best rally, explains the decision not to go to Finland, i guess.

Are you taking the mick now? Stop trying to polish a turd. It was a just short of disaster. Any of those offs could have resulting him in flipping onto his roof and bending the cage. And his car had all the upgrades? Gone is any chance of Citroen attracting another top line driver. So Lefevbre was the target, here is me thinking, it was at least a podium.
