As much as now WRC2 guys are running so no any further improvements at RC1 could be done? Not very often that WRCar come to SD in a WRC2 pack

No, I think it's quite typical. In 2018 I remember walking off the shakedown when it was just FWD cars and suddenly Tänak blasted through

EDIT: it seems many drivers completed their third run just a while ago but weren't able to improve on the time. I suspect there's ruts on the road. Most likely this is also why they waited, to get a feel on driving in the ruts as it will be on the second pass.

I think this was a reply to Dirtfish who already wrote an article about Lappi setting the fastest time on the shakedown

DNS was the last thing Teemu and M-Sport needed. Thank god its easily fixable.

Hopefully no hidden rollcage damage

Good to see that 15 drivers in R5 category are less than second per kilometre speed from each other. Tight battle will be there as well.
