Rally Islas Canarias 2020

Dirtfish:

'M-Sport’s Adrien Fourmaux was one of the few drivers to get a dry set-up and slick tires working properly and ended the Friday morning loop in third, 1.1s ahead of local driver Yeray Lemes.

Despite fearing he was “losing a lot of time” with his set-up Fourmaux was the only non-Spaniard within half a minute of rally leader Solans.'

I have to say I struggle to believe that he was beating other guys on full dry setup and similar road position by 2 s/km or more.

There are probably some extra differences which M-Sport doesn't mention. Like soft vs medium compound or even intermedium tires (dunno if that's possible to use in ERC now).

I'd like to see some photo/video evidence.

Fourmaux 3.4s faster than Mikkelsen on SS5. Stage fully-dry.

[Lead]

Mikkelsen again on the wrong tyres or at least he says so

But Andreas says 'not the perfect tyre choice'

Cais missing ?

Stopped late in the stage.

Hit a bridge, damaged two wheels.

Breen's not going any better this afternoon, slow on SS5.

Just like Marczyk?

"That was hard stage for us, in the first loop we had full tyres for dry and it was wet, now it was dry and we had full wet tyres. The car was moving around"

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Good first split for Lukyanuk on SS5.

Goes fastest.
