no because they had half minute difference,and Basso was taking it easy just to finish the rally.Of course as we have seen plenty of times,mistakes can happen even when going slow.

He must have realized that pace on SS7 wouldn’t have been enough.
Amazing result from Huttunen, another tactical win this year!

He could afford to go even slower at stage 8 and 9 compared to stage 7.
It wasnt Huttunes pace the problem.Last edited by dimviii; 24th October 2020 at 20:50.

Basso was not interested in Huttunen as he was not scoring points to italian championship... Originally Posted by AnttiL

In fact, Basso and Crugnola were completely different league and nobody was able to catch them. Then there were Rossetti and Scandola, fighting for third place. All of them made mistakes, so they didnt won. Huttunen was +- on speed of Rossetti and Scandola.

The waiting can be also to pressure Hyundai with the new contract. But then again, I would think that would have been solved by now already and this article yesterday from dirtfish got my hopes...
