Was this after a cut left hand bend?

What happened with Ogier, Neuville and Katsuta on third run?

R5 was closer to the pre-2017 WRCars than they are now to Rally1 i think?

The biggest difference seems to be getting used to the extra grip due to the big aero of wrc1 cars. So they could reduce rc1 aero, or they could increase the rc2 aero to make things easier to step up.

Most likely show/vip-runs as from this season only two SD laps are mandatory..

If they don’t abolish Rally1 altogether I vote for reducing the aero on those - Rally shouldn’t become like F1. The aero is expensive to develop, and looks a bit silly too.

And I am afraid thats what manufacturers like. They want to be always in shine, fighting for top ten and be visible everywhere. They are not interested in privateers fighting for podium...

Well it seems like one specific manufacturer wants it the most. The same one that wanted Global Race Engine in Rally1, possibly because it's a big obstacle for potential new competitors.

Nice looking livery, hopefully they'll break the duck with that car and finally win a championship with it.
