A very beautiful Rally Acropolis, we enjoyed SS6 Livadia and SS8-SS11 Pyrgos in very nice spots.
We managed to enjoy Loeb twice, before his unfortune technical issue.
I am pretty sure that if the car didn't brake he would be in the fight for the win with Hyundais.
At Pyrgos SS8 was clear that he was on a mission like Tanak and Neuville also were. Fantastic drive.
Since he had a time advantage from Friday it would have been be difficult for the Hyundais to catch him.
Regarding Athanassoulas, I think NOT is not fair with him.
On Friday he was 1-1.5"/km from the time of the top drivers with Rally 2 cars. Not only at the stages near his house, but also on the others...
On Saturday's 1st loop he started with a time 1.5"/km at SS8 Pyrgos from the top drivers and continued with 2"/km at the other stages.
On Saturday's 2nd loop he was slower even than his 1st loop and at SS13 Tarzan he had failed power steering for almost all the stage.
The issue with his leg got worse stage by stage, from what we learned.
In my opinion, someone almost 46 years old, with no kms behind the wheel for years, except Acropolis 2021 and 2022.
When his leg was in better condition at the beginning of the rally, he was able to be 1-1.5"/km from the top guys then its enough and shows that this guy had and still has talent...
