When I wrote it, there was no comparing moments yet. The reason was, commentary lacked of context. Sordo-Evans-Rovanperä are not driving for times, they are just passing.
Now with context it stays create time and I'm really happy that he delivered that. Like I wrote: "If they are quickest after top4, then it will be different story.". So it is different story.

Tanak said at the end of yesterday that he drove at 60 percent, that Friday was an appetizer and the stages on Saturday were rougher and harder. After this stage he said that the stages today are much smoother than yesterday. Did he change his mind overnight?

Well after being skeptical about fast-pacing him to the car even on gravel where he has little experience I am now starting to turn to a Fourmaux fan.
He really shows clever driving, yesterday he was breaking hard for the rough parts even on straights. Today he is again cautious when needed while easily showing speed om the "safe" parts.
Such a contrast to all the "push all the time" youngsters like Solberg or even Rovanpera and especially Gryazin. Also a contrast to drivers that either drive at 100% or 50% like Meeke.

From interviews yesterday i assumed that today was going to be a difficult day, but the stages seem much smoother. They should rename the event Rally Kenya, because this is not the Safari.

That was a Live TV stage.
Can't imagine the broadcasters will like that.

McErlean's sponsors already mentioned some time earlier this year, that he has already shown enough progress to keep his fundings.
