    Whatever the result I'm very impressed by top3 and specially Tänak's driving. It's not the smooth Tänak but he's trying absolutely everything and what a joy to watch.
    Rovanperä so clinical and smooth - a real masterpiece of driving.

    Not surprised. The performance difference by the two cars must be quite big if Ott can’t win a single stage by pace

    Yeah, Rovanperä just makes it look too easy. Starting first on the road, last on the road, does not matter... just dominating.

    It's hard to be a Thierry/Hyundai fan at the moment.....

    Only you know your true potential.

    Unfortunately, this year Hyundai is not comparable to Toyota either in terms of speed or durability. "There was very little time left to design and build new hybrid cars, but Hyundai started work half a year later than others," explained Latvala. "We fit into the time window, Hyundai didn't."

    At the same time, Latvala thinks he knows what Hyundai's main problem is. "Look at how the rear of the cars behaves, it throws here and there, which means that the machines are not balanced," said Latvala. "Watch Tänak's ride - he doesn't have his usual smoothness, he has to race uncharacteristically very aggressively."

    Latvala also has a recipe for fixing the Hyundai bug. "It's hard to do anything with small settings, things can be made better, but also worse. If I were the boss of Hyundai, I would take a risk and make big, fundamental changes to the car."
    How embarassing when your rival team's boss gives you advices because your car is so bad that it's not even fun beating it.

    It wouldn't be so bad if Rovanpera looked like it was any effort or he was stressed doing what he's doing. There could then be some hope. But it's just effortless.
