    Harsh, sure. But unfair, how? Currently, M-Sport is just an also-ran, backmarker, shadow of their former glory.

    We were talking about disconnecting the Front ARB situation. The Puma isn't that bad in general - Loeb and Tanak won events in it and Fourmaux had multiple podiums.

    Their overall position this year is clearly down to their drivers and lack of budget compared to the giants of Toyota and Hyundai.

    M-Sport's problem is money, money and money. Bashing the car and drivers is pointless because those can be only remedied with money which the team does not have. And doesn't seem to be able to get. Therefore, it's death spiral. No money means no results and no results mean no sponsorship deals. Since this is thread for Canarias event and not M-Sport, I leave my commentary at that.

    Are you judging Hancock tyres from one puncture, or how many have you counted?

    I was merely kidding, it’s only their first year and first time in the WRC so judgement should only be made once the season is over.
    Only you know your true potential.

    IMO the tires have been very good so far.

    Pirelli was much much worse when they joined.
