    I am here.

    2 years ago he would be top2 on speed alone on a slow gravel rally with cleaning advantage. Now he is 4th after two cars out and the only guy he is bearing without issues is Munster.

    That said it certainly beats crashing out on leg 1 or even first stage.

    Just wanted to see if Evans rally and Championship were over. Just being told his splits was a bit strange.

    TBH I'm a bit worried if Fourmaux has a great result it makes him being poached from M-Sport more likely...

    Some hard core Welsh rally fans I follow on X really dont think Evans has much of a future...

    Quotes:

    Not good enough at present. If Fourmaux stays then I think the second seat will go elsewhere.

    Really think he has lost it, and being honest, don’t think he deserves it at the moment.

    Really think this could be the end of the road for our boy, not only for this year but for a drive next year.

    Yes, he’s having problems, but I also think he has lost the spark and speed required at the top level.

    Don't worry mate, he'll be there next year.

    Not sure if he deserves to be at present.

    Seems quite harsh. As a championship contender he does have lost something he had with the 2017-gen Yaris. As a second driver he still seems to be the best option available.

    When talking about Evans's future, I think there should be a separation between "spark gone for the drivers title level" and "just can not drive".

    He seems to struggle a lot this year and although the points wise he has been quite close to the top, then performance wise he _flees_ lacking a bit.

    On the big picture, I could not be that dramatic. How many drivers are better than him? The choice is not that big. But, the choice of available seats is not big as well.
