    Some brake cleaner and a lighter.

    But tyres don't just come off the rim without good previous reason. And that reason is almost always that the tyre was deflated due to damage first.

    And even if they would come of the rim without being damaged, you would need to stop quite immediatelly or you would destroy them still.

    Yes, works also, if the stars are aligned right.
    But Sesks - I believe at least one tyre was ok, the one that came off hitting the bank. Happened even to some wannabe streetracers

    Ogier didn't lose much time on the last two stages and saved his Soft tyres. Ominous for the others tomorrow.

    Unfortunately, I didn't catch that (I mostly watch *irated stream muted as commentary is in languages I don't understand).
    However, it is plausible note because it's used in situations where road seems to do one thing but actually is doing something else so driver should not trust what he sees.

    To the honest there doesn’t seem to be much of a difference between the tyre compounds

    Tanak vs Ogier for the win it seems. Can Kalle reel them in and join the fight with some monster times?
    Good job to all the drivers, I expected much more carnage today.
