[WRC] Arctic Rally 2021

so this power stage sounds like a total Toyota stage with mostly flat-out, like yesterdays SS4

It's even faster. SS4 had slow sections and junctions as well...well this has two junctions and one 800m slow section.

Some wonderful static cameras out there

regarding Breens gearbox was a problem,or a change to a longer final drive to stage character?

I think gear ratios are fixed since many years ago iirc.

Incredibly impressive work to change the complete gearbox in 15 min. High fives all around the Hyundai team.

all with 5 tires except Kalle with 6

Doesnt look like a very interesting stage.

lets see Olivers splits now, he drove the stage a month ago

So if putting cars side to side on let's say 2km flat out section.. one going 185 and other passing it at 195khm, getting to finish earlier is not a thing..?

But okay, let it be..

Hyundai's guys did a great job w Breen's car.
In 15min service they managed to take the gearbox off and put it back with 3sec spare

So you consider rallying as some one mile drag race wow

EDIT: and yet still Tänak who has scored one of the lesser top speed leads the rally...wonder why...

This is how the Arctic stages typically are. For the four others they've picked out some more technical sections. Also all the military range stages were unavailable so they didn't have a lot to choose from on a quick notice.

Katsuta faster than Ogier on splits
