[WRC] XION Rally Argentina | 25th - 28th April

[mknight]

Anyway looking forward to watch the onboards,

It's on 18:09 Ogier's time.
The ones that drove before were: Suninen, Latvala, Sordo, Mikkelsen, Meeke, Tanak
Neuville went after but he also could have cut then.

shiiiiiit... thats bad.

Ogier must've seen and been following the lines, then saw they went right when his notes said left.

[Allez Andruet]

And seems like Ogier is god. Everything he says and everything he do is sacred. Sportman of the year. Winy little girl...

Rules are rules. It really as simple as that.

it gets even better...

Kaj Lindström sayin the problem on SS13 wasnt alternator related, there was a loss of power for Tänak because the valves didnt open after watersplash and the engine didnt get enough air.

probably means the ''valves'' that protect water to sucked from engine
these valves open and closes manually from the co-driver if i remember correct.
so they tried to open the valve after the water pass and didnt opened,or they forgot to open?

They just showed onboard of Tanak and Meeke who went right.

Meeke and Tanak took the wrong way, the rest they didn't say.

The wall thickness is super thin... and the gusset is also silly thin...Anything for weight I guess but there are rules.

Even thin metal should bend and not crack.

They must have put huge amounts of heat in it while welding and then cooled it down way too fast too make it that brittle.

yeap flaps are more correct word.
so seems that wasnt Tanak or Jarveoja mistake.
But lets wait for the official announcement from Toyota
