Was it just Meeke's off and the delayed start for Tanak that gave them chance to see Ogier's time and decide what time they needed to do before starting ?

That was simple not good enough by Meeke... very frustrating.

I think Meeke is top equal for completed rallies. Originally Posted by Fast Eddie WRC

Most of the year we've had this new sensible Kris, the one who reacts to punctures and brake failures and so on by doing the sensible thing to get the most points he can under the circumstances. There was just the one crazy moment in Mexico, before this.

I think there's also a difference in the tone of Meeke's stage end interviews. In Monte it was just "I love this car so much and I love so much to be driving", now it's "f-king hell" and "simple stuff!" when things go wrong.

They at any case will know that. 4*4min=16min between Ogier and Tanak starts and stage time was 6:35 so you get 9min to calculate. Another reason is Meeke position. If Meeke stays its 12pts for Ogier -not 15 as it now. So that extra 3pts playing role to do tactics Originally Posted by Fast Eddie WRC

Also crash on 4th rally in a row. (Corsica 2nd puncture was crash, Argentina and Chile also crashes), just that they didn't lead to full retirement. Originally Posted by Fast Eddie WRC

Especially with the state of mind he was in after the spin (Tommi commented on this on allive) . So for me it also looks like team fail as well.

Yes, exactly. Spins happen. It's overreacting to the spin that is a problem. Originally Posted by mknight
