Who was it criticising the mentioning of Polo R5 cars having issues. Can you see why now ?

Pietarinen has been a bit under the radar but is doing pretty well in WRC2.

It's very quick but there seem to be a few major reliability problems. I suppose the test programme wasn't thorough enough, especially surprising since they postponed the homologation date too.

It certainly shows how difficult it is to build a competitive and reliable R5 car.

In every single gravel rally this year including yesterday here Toyotas have struggled (relatively) on second passes. We'll see if that trend continue today.

Will he be short on hard tyres by end of rally?

I think he will have just enough.

Does Portugal normally have this much attrition? I never thought of it as a tough rally, but maybe I got the wrong idea.
