    very well done Rovanpera, many over here were writing him off that today he would be 'eaten' by Kopecky - not yet even if Rovanpera wont win tomorrow, very strong performance from this VERY, VERY young man who doesnt have much tarmac experience. He just got his driving license this year!

    That could be really interesting cause they had to nominate 16 tarmac tires out of 16H 12S and 8FW.

    So those that did both loops on soft today might be out or low.
    Dunno how to find out what they nominate.

    Don't know why I get this impression, but if they ever made a remake out of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, I think Elena would be a very good Tuco.

    Kopecký said he made a mistake with tyre choice. He was all day on soft slicks while others used rain tyres. He said it was a good choice in the morning but completely wrong one for the afternoon. Nevertheless he promissed to attack tomorrow.

    Yep, it be a surprise. But most of time was gained today in tricky rain condition. He and Jan was equal on early splits and when they hit a rain - Jan come to safe side and Kalle still taking risks.

    Jan didn't come on a safe side, quite the opposite. He said he had many big moments today because of wrong tyre choice and resulting aquaplaning. Kalle has been doing great job and the right tyre choice is part of that.
