really slow gearbox.. max under 170kmh for Toyota :rolleyes:
I miss Safari watersplashes... are there any on the rally ?
Till Neuville is delivering with this kind of driving, nothing to say, bit it feels a bit risky in situation where one car is already out.
Mega time Neuville compared to Ogier.
I'm sure Neuville doesn't really think about the team result at the moment.. He is driving with his good pace and that's it.. He is smart enough to know that he don't need to push..
and that's why he can use the lead seconds.. punctures
Aaaaand Neuville's relentless pushing got him a puncture. He's lucky it happened so late in the stage.
Epic shots when the heli is going the same speed as the car
In-car dust slowing Kalle maybe.
at what speed should Neuville drive then? should he slow down on purpose and not to make the gap bigger?
if Ogier would be leading and winning stages with such times, then it would be calculated and smart drive? but others are pushing too much all the time :D
we'll see at the end who got the pace right. There is also some luck needed.
The pace is right as long as you lead and drive, once you retire it was too much ;)
Neuville and Hyundai history says they wont survive at this pace but this could be the exception that proves the rule.
We'll see, said the blind man. Everyone will have their issues, Neuville as well. There's luck involved in this rally. But I've seen more troubles with drivers taking it easy than with Thierry and Kalle.
Funny that people were complaining that the rally is too short but as it happens the same thing matters as the old safari, judging the speed, judging the terrain and having a bit of luck.
Neuville update
He's back on the move after stopping to work on his car on the road section.
Had to dig out my old rally game for safari watersplashes ! ;)

Meaning, they may cancel it...
Where down this game?
Hearing Neuville might have engine trouble.
Prokop out so no WRC2 points from Kenya... For anyone...
Quote from WRC Live:
PROKOP IS OUT
Martin Prokop has retired from the rally after crashing heavily in a fast section on the previous stage.
The team have confirmed Prokop is fine, however, co-driver Jůrka Zdeněk has been taken to hospital for checks after reporting back pains.
Neuville struggling
Tyre delaminated
That literally exploded
How many spares Neuville had? Rovanperä may smell some victory here... (Yes, I know, long way to go)
almost hit the heli.. :D
Tanak isn't faring any better at split 2
2 spares
