i want to see onboard of Tänaks puncture causing moment.
Meeke admitted yesterday it was his fault, Latvala did the same today. But still strange they all had punctures in Monte and now here too. Fortunately for them next tarmac rally is far away
But yeah champsionship wise Ott now lost chunk of points but still all good and the second half of season is his better side.#8 Ott Tänak - Martin Järveoja #8

Certainly something Toyota will have a look at surely. They might be the drivers fault here (but in Monte it wasn't the case), and I just think maybe the Toyota is a bit weaker in that department (as in, it'll take a bit less to puncture a tyre than other teams?).
Meeke and Jari admitted their mistakes and maybe Tanak's was his own as well, but all 3 drivers getting punctures on two consecutive tarmac rallies is certainly an interesting coincidence .
Tanak and Meeke had the potential speed wise to take big points this weekend though, whereas Latvala probably wouldn't have. That is what will piss Makinen off, this should've been a big haul of pts for Toyota given the cars strength and the drivers speed. Big let off for Hyundai

Happens, Hyundai had all the "potential" in Mexico, and ended with one 4th place.
Yes indeed, i seen that over the top is an understatement . So if a car is half on half off and blocking the stage unless the crew can get the road clear by themselves the stage will be...
