"what is this crap?"

[mknight]

From the Adamo interview after the stage it sounded like they had issues with other tires and he blamed Pirelli. (very indirectly though)

But as I said they had issues with excessive tirewear also with Michelin as far back as mid 2019.

Could be something else with the tires, Rovanpera also mentioned some issues before stage.

"what is this crap?"

Exactly what I was thinking when they showed this on WRC+. They're probably missing those Michelins.

Oliver did a huge amount of seconds to the others on SS7...

Is that one real?

AnttiL?
Honestly asking, after sauna.

That's either bug or a corrected time (for what?) at splits he was slowly loosing time whole stage and was on 6th place in stage when he came to finish.

Yeah. Must be.
On Twitter he said he was happy anyway (losing 20 secs on SS7, engine cutting). Tactically he doing the right thing anyway.

I wonder how often you can rise 2 places to the lead when you had 5th time in stage losing 9 seconds to stage winner...
