Didn't Meeke crash yesterday? Won't help dominating if he crash.

Think it was on SD.

Think it was on SD.

It was on qualifying stage, he rolled the car and it was said that he won't be able to start the rally. But team managed to repair the car and he did start and dominated drivers like Rossel, Gryazin and Loubet.

quick doubt: is this "citroen team" in wrc a "factory" team? i know its a team from belgium, but i dont understand if it is actual citroen behind them, like in motocross where kimi raikkonen's team is literally the european kawasaki factory team

Yes, it's the official Citroen team. Both Rossel and Gryazin are supported by the factory. You can see their press releases on the offcial website of Stellantis - the owner of Citroen brand:

Wow, impressive work really by the team and Meeke. As I gather some slight advantage with the tyres, is that true? But then you also have offical Hyundai team recognizing their rally2 car is lacking.

Shame Meeke will have to hold a margin on first day in Portugal, as afterall it's Hyundai Portugal caring about the title and they are giving him the drive. And Armindo seems to always be there in 2nd!

Ruben Rodrigues seemed to have the measure of Armindo until that puncture in SS4, but other than that, nobody in the national championship seemed to be making any inroads.

Even if Meeke wins the championship (which of course he will) he won't be the champion (yes, that is correct!)

I can see him going flat out.

In short, having another driver in the team helps.
