[WRC] Rally Saudi Arabia 2025

Not ideal for Evans. If others puncture, Ogier would move up, Evans not

Kalle puncture.. Title slowly slipping into Ogier's hands.. Surely when it's all about luck

GG stopped?

Just watched the last stage and this is definitely what rallying should be doing. Our planet is stunning.

It isn't. It's tomorrow what will decide, points for overall results are pretty much done.

Not completely sure of the focus for that message, but.. but.. but..

Well, I'm not really a fan of the situation where there is no equal playing field for everyone. Yes, it is part of the rally one way or another, but at the moment, if you are in the road position in the first 3-4 cars, you basically have zero chances to do anything meaningful for the entire rally.

We are also watching the title contenders "fighting" for places like 7 to 10. What kind of message does it send? How to explain it, and is it attractive to potential new fans and audience?

Tänak started from 4th position and is currently fighting for the podium positions. At first I also thought that the last event should be less a lottery and more equal regarding the starting position, but my opinion is changing. If you are fighting for the championship and you know the last rally is full or surprises, then you have to keep that in mind and try to have a decent points advantage before this event.

There is a big chance that one of the youngsters will have some kind of problem. Then Ogier moves up a place and Evans does not, because he is so far behind.. Ogier realistically being fifth (10 points) and Evans realistically being eight (4 points sounds like a big problem for Evans..
