[WRC] Forum8 Rally Japan 2026

Now his work starts in earnest, with no Deutschland, Corsica or Catalunya towards the end of the season to help him manage his gap so road sweeping from Greece to Saudi (no chance they’ll replace that round ey?) Huge congratulations to him. As for Oliver, someone needs to tell him he needs to slow down just a bit and he’ll be in contention for the championship.

Elfyn Evans clearly has, arguably, his best chance ever to take the title. He is managing the situation cleverly, knowing Oliver is suffering from bouts of overdriving and Ogier has allowed too many points to slip. Greece may be the only major headache, in as far as road sweeping is concerned, coz Estonia and Finland aren't extreme. This is his championship to lose; but I doubt he will.

First time in 13 years that I didn’t watch a single stage of a rally

Oliver can slow down quite a bit and still be a lot faster. Just have a look at super sunday results.

Yes, I know the guys in the top needed to manage results overall, and standings quite settled, but still...

He is like his Father, for better and worse ^^

I don't think he can scale back much, since it's his personality

Great drive by Elfyn. Sad that he only gets 17 points more than a driver who didn't even finish all the stages. There isnt much point to sunday points, it just penalises the drivers who are trying to manage their speed for the best possible result. Does it make sunday any more exciting? Not for me. The line should have been drawn at the powers stage points.

Agree. But needs to adapt to current circumstances, not what was in 2000-2007...

Btw. Some pressure also for Ollie on Super Sunday, anyway.
