Yes Ogier had a poor run (unusual for him) but was anyone really able to capitalise by being the dominant force at that time?

a) you assume that all 3 cars are capable of winning on any given day.. that is never really the case. Citroen and Hyundai for example were clearly incapable of winning in Finland. Toyota was clearly incapable of winning in Mexico etc..

b) as others did you can use Tanak in same car as reference and the difference is rather minimal this year
