    It was the same when Evans did the British Championship in 2016. In some places watching him it was like he was in a WRC car compared to everyone else in an R5, such was the difference in speed carried and spectacle provided by a top driver. It was great to see as a spectator. He was a big draw for me making the effort to attend numerous rounds that year, a similar effort I haven't made since he left...

    Italians are too fast for foreign crews. After 9 stages it is the old fox Luca Rossetti who leads the rally. Alessandro Re is second. The best foreign crew is Frenchman Pierre Campana who is third. There is only one stage to go - the 36-km long night stage Talla.

    Reading the locals say how tough this rally is for newcomers... very, very twisty.

    Gryazin did some good times, as did Yates. Ingram just steady.. saying he was only 'knocking off the rust."

    And the young son of a family Re won!! Congratulations for this huge (and unexpected success). Also Gryazin can be happy with his result.
    Dissapointment: Ingram.

    Rosetti was as good I was expecting him to be but retired on the last due to his own mistake?
    Gryazin did good and at the end lost the rally on stage 3, does someone know what happened there? Just a spin I guess?
    Lindholm also showed some positive signs. 2 bad stages dropped him further on the final standings.

    I don't know would I count Ingram as a dissapointment. He kinda did as I thought he would do - counting in the long break from driving.

    Exactly. Ingram has had a nasty illness and a long break out of the car. He needed to finish and get maximum kilometres in the car. He also made several changes to the set-up. It was like an extended test.

    I think he had a puncture:
