Not quite sure if I'd call it balanced. Tanak is dominating while the two others struggle.
Latvala and Lappi have not led a rally for even a single stage after 10 rounds, with what often looks like the fastest car, that's actually quite amazing. The only rallies where one of them got podium on pure pace was Latvala in Finland (a rally where he dominated last year until technical issue), Monte is hard to count with 3 cars ahead of him hitting issues. Lappi has been complaining now on last 2 gravel rallies about gearbox not shifting down and stalling the engine and repeated it also happens on tests.
Might be that the changes introduced after Tanak came don't really suit them that much, Latvala even voiced something along those lines recently.Last edited by mknight; 21st September 2018 at 23:35.

Some people are lucky. 22-year-old Finnish driver Benjamin Korhola is going to compete in European Rally Championship this year. But that's not all - he's also going to join Italian championship -...
