So Elfyn will take a two-minute win without single fastest time? On proper stage.
Don't get me wrong, from fan side love the event. I find the fight of tenths on high speed events with clear tire choises actually quite damn boring sometimes, too close to circuit racing with learning all the stages by heart and one stall on friday can decide the whole event. OK the wider field of drivers fighting on the win nowadays gives something.
Edit: nope there were fastest times yesterday, must've misread the graphic on the screen.Last edited by elmerim; 23rd March 2025 at 04:02.

He has three SS wins, two from long stages?

WRC should have some endurance events but others should be way more shorter in case of stages (I mean less distance, less differences in times = more battles), also it would be more kind to many people watching it, since almost everyone have work duties on thursday and friday.

I dont know but these points are important for Tanak, Evans will be by a huge margin in front

Did you forgot what he did on the last round of 2024 while having good position to win the event (and also chance of stealing the glory from Neuville)? I think he is playing safe. Since Forumaux don't have anything to lose I assume he will be the only one to push today.
Other examples: Safari specialist Ian Duncan winning Safari 1994 in works Toyota. Mats Jonsson winning Sweden 1992 and 1993 with Toyota Sweden (only Sweden entered in '92, Sweden and RAC in '93)...
