This stage is mostly just flat out and square corners, not much chances to make a difference. Double pollution because everyone does two laps.

Ogier seems to be quite lost with the set-up, saying he knows whats wrong but doesnt know what to do, exactly like in Corsica
Neuville when seeing Otts time :D
lost only 1.5 but he is making such a deal out of it, cmon youre only 3.2 down from him
Pollution is clear in here. Times say everything, Jari thinks he has a good stage yet loses 6s in this type of stage.
Paali = Hay bale
Maali = finish
Was wondering why would Esuppi have "finish" in his notes in the middle of a stage. lol
What just happened? Kalle lost 12 seconds to Kopecky who went into the lead?
EDIT: Time fixed already
Did Rovanperä made a mistake at the end? Splits were almost equal to Kopecky and he managed to lose over 13 secs
Now Rovanperä's time was fixed
Let´s sum up and leave it. We aint coming nowhere on this. We have a rally to follow.
Ford has big problems. Especially with R5 car. MW wants money from his drivers. Then he can´t get proper drivers maybe doing some better result, with still a car that hasn´t the speed.
Main point is for sure car isn´t good enough. Not yet.
MW had chances to gain better results if money wasn´t his most important goal. Now he could loose all, when Skoda and VW selling the more R5´s...
End of my discussion. Leave it here. You can go on if you want.
I´m taking a lunchbreak here. Coming back in the afternoon. so long. :)
Awful morning for M-Sport except Greensmith on the last stage setting a decent time for a newbie...
EDIT: Continue the discussion here
Can you just stop R5-good-bad-car-or-driver mess here? It's offtopic.

"Unfortunately we didn't really solve the problem since Corsica. Basically the car is not turning, it's understeering far too much. We are trying many things but at the moment it's not responding like we would hope. Of course I'll keep pushing but it's difficult to do better"
mistake of Lefebvre at ss 3.He lost 3 sec to Kalle at this stage

From what Meeke's saying he had some serious conversation with his boss and he knows his only Target is to get to the end and provide decent manufacturer points.
we have de Mevius on same event and he even deeper. Lukianuk and Arai on ERC not shine too in ERC. And if you look to previous events. Mads every time complain about a car. Or it's not working properly, or it's complicate car issue. And it's not something new, same was in 2018 with Leferbve, but on that time i give some credit that car is new and need a time to make them more competitive.
Nearly same now happen with FiestaR5 Mk2. Camilli is fast driver especially on tarmac, but his pace with Mk2 so poor. I really hope that M-sport in few month can fix a car but seems it's not be happen. It's like C3WRC was build with issues and it so hard to improve in a years
I think that was pretty obvious from both his pace, and his demeanour at stage ends...you can just tell he isn’t happy driving to a pace. But so far he is doing what Toyota need, in touch to take advantage of any mistake from the top guys, but in front of Sordo & Mikkelsen.
