like i predicted in the crystal ball thread, i said that Meeke will be often the fastest Toyota and now after seeing him perform in Monte im even more sure about this.
pacewise so far he has been very impressive indeed.
On the other hand, it seems to me that the Yaris is a very good/neutral car that whoever steps in it will be fast right away.#8 Ott Tänak - Martin Järveoja #8

Doesn't look like it will reach the area before the evening if you look at the radar, this is the start of Col De Turini

Yep, while impressive it's mostly telling on how the Yaris is.
We have seen Meeke vs Loeb in same car on tarmac, Loeb was faster in his first rally with that car on tarmac. Before that we saw Meeke vs Mikkelsen in same car, again Mikkelsen was faster in first tarmac rally.
Meeke was rarely slow in Monte in other cars (maybe you can count 2018, but he seemed to be playing it safe).

My post at pre Monte tests, relied at how Yaris behaved at dry tarmac,and today we saw at 4 stages, 4 times 1-2
yes at tests looked slower from Latvala and Tanak,but as you know Latvala is Latvala and you cant count on him about stability.
At one stage he can be fast,and at the next slow, with no explain from him why.
Tanak is much more steady,and Meeke was slower from him.Of course his pace is excellent, and very promising for the rest of the year.

The question is how much of a difference this non hybrid makes in terms of the rental. Even if it is some 10 % cheaper (doubt it is as much) it does not solve the current WRC issues, at all.
