Paulo Nobre: "I'm happy, but more tired, in the car it's like in sauna."

One minute penalty for Luky......

Why the penalty ?

[dimviii]

Lukys penalty was because the wheelbase of his c3 was not compliant

To me Polos seem to be the fastest out of the hairpin btw.

He kept the revs up there. Problem seems to be in the tighter hairpins where engine dies.

Basso missed a junction and lost 24 sec.
Luky without penalty would be 6 sec from Basso.

[Mirek]

Basso lost over 20 seconds with a mistake but still safely leading.

EDIT: Well it's a black car and it's hot, maybe it got a bit longer by itself

“We have a one-minute penalty. It’s a team responsibility but the engineers are not agreeing. It’s a pity, it’s not a mistake by the driver who has made an excellent rally,” explained Vincent Ducher, Rally Manager at Saintéloc Racing.

“Lucas and the team did a good job to prepare the car and make the Michelin tyres work. This issue is my responsibility, that’s it.

“It was not the meaning to finish third or fourth if that’s what happens. Legally we can appeal but we are still waiting the process of how the measurement has been made.”

Lukyanuk not happy at all. And now has a lead of just 1 second to Crugnola !
