    Tänak / Järveoja
    Retired after service

    He mentioned he had an engine issue at the end of the SSS. Possibly saving the car for Sunday now.

    Makes sense as there is nothing to gain from today + they get much longer service time.

    Lazy bastard just can't be bothered.

    Between the part-time drivers, and this sort of attitude, the drivers need to cop some criticism for why the WRC faces challenges to fans....

    A bit overreacting?

    He was complaining something about the engine today and it got a pretty heavy hit yesterday if you don’t remember

    Sensible not to ruin it cause it’s brand new for Tänak and only 2 engines this year with the new rules

    Katsuta got hurt a lot here by slow pace in a single stage on Friday, this led to a bad start position and now he is stuck.

    Overall he is a decent driver, also for a 3rd spot in a manu team...in case we had 3-4 manu teams. Now with 2,5 teams it feels some drivers that often are faster than him have to sit at home. Since he gets to drive anyway, using him as 4th would be great, much better than selling 4th seat to Bertelli.

    With regards to Katsutas future he might even get a rally win at some point, he certainly has the speed every now and then. Consistency (speed + staying on the road) does seem to be a problem, hurting him also as a point-scoring driver.

    And when Tanak doesn't complain about something?

    Probably a typo(?)
    Only you know your true potential.
