On the first stage of the day, @Rosselyohan
, N. Ciamin had technical issue which forced them to retire for today but they will be back in full force tomorrow.

The frenchman, @EricCamilli
went off the road after a misunderstanding of the notes.

24 tyres allowed, chosen from 24M and 16H tyres.

This has been the standard on gravel rallies for a while.

With 5 "sections" you can have 5 fresh tires in every "section" (after service), 2x friday, 2x saturday, 1 sunday

If you take 6 at some point and "rotate" them during the section so that they get worn you will have to run on a few used tires on sunday. But usually not all tires are that used and most of sunday is cruising for a lot of people so that running on 1 or 2 slightly used tires is not a problem.

also they have to think about the punctured tyres

High-risk strategy hanging out the washing in Alghero this morning. It’s just started raining...

Much to our regret, it turns out the technical issue we had experienced during the evening section is unfixable even in the service. Rally Sardinia is over for us.

It stopped raining half an hour ago...and less wind also.

from French forum

Thierry Neuville: "I have not yet had any discussions about this subject but I think the answer is already very clear ...

Dani is not in a championship fight and although he deserves to win, we are on our side still in a title fight so I think the answer is very simple. "
