Ott's car is fine, just a precautionary cooling system switch and ready to go again this evening, so no more SD runs. Edit: Never mind, already heading back to the SD stage, seems like it wasn't that bad as they thought. https://twitter.com/OttTanak/status/1047784797374959617/video/1 -

I'm sure the wheels locked under braking, but generally does the engine stall this quick? It's just that all Toyota drivers have said that they have problems with the engine stalling mid corner or mid braking in this season. -

If you listen closely, the engine stalled mid braking (common issue for Toyota). Nothing to do with the championship battle nerves. The car is now on the trailer and heading back to service, radiator is broken. -
Oh, change.org huh? Pretty sure people tried to impeach the presidents with that. How does that site even still exist? No one takes it seriously. XD Especially when it starts with the infamous #novrnobuy hashtag :D

Wow, really really impressive stuff, hope it's as good as it sounds.

Only 2.0 hours left, but these are going to be the longest hours I've ever experienced. :D

Volkswagen isn't new to the sport. English version also has 2019 WRC mentioned while the Polo R5 starts in Spain this year. -

Volkswagen Motorsport had a rather interesting testing session, saying it was an endurance test to see how much the car can take. This is the conclusion. More here: https://www.autosport.com/wrc/news/138349/vw-defends-r5-car-strength-after-testing-crash -

We could go on and on about this - rallying is a dangerous sport and the drivers have done/are still doing dangerous overtakes, close calls etc on road sections (not easy to 'cool down' after a stage), there's nothing unique in Tänak's case. Throwing out statements like a need for disqualifying and a ban for several rallies just smells like complete butthurtness - that's why this video came up in the first place. -

Nah, we only hate this guy who made the statement. :D Edit: Ogier and Mikkelsen should also be DSQ and banned from several rallies! ;) In conclusion, the thread in Motorsport Forums is just hypocrisy at its finest. /case closed https://youtu.be/5O-INzThaZ0?t=21s -

Nope, you need to drive as a civilean while on the road section, Ogier was late in Poland and he had to push in the road section and he was fined Yup. All of the drivers are like this :) This is why I can't understand why that Finnish dude makes such a number out of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asQ8xsF3Yzc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UT8pg0xEQ4I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcqmzSGLx-M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADO5n8LqePU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAtfq4z3vx0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaswEGOF7ok -

In other news, some Finnish guy is so butthurt about Tänak beating Latvala and Lappi that he's sent a complaint to FIA because of this https://twitter.com/PeAChapaRacing/status/957725243279323137 From Motorsportforums.com - "I have today brought this case to various offices in FIA and offices which are affiliated with FIA, both sporting as well as mobility divisions concerned with road traffic safety. Whether they want to set an example or not is a different case, but the ball is firmly rolling at least, like it should be. My bottom line still remains, I am a great fan of rallying and I don't want to see drivers disrespecting the sport."

We will already see in Sweden if the upgrades to the suspension have done any good, because last year's Citroen on snow was a complete disaster handling-wise. -

Hyundai really is the next VW if you exclude it's proneness to mechanical failures. Edit: WRC+ All Live has huge potential (love the studio and fillers between the stages), new technologial upgrades always come with some issues, I'm 100% sure it'll get better and better with every event. -
Don't worry, its coming sooner™ than you think. ;)

Well, something is going on, Codies updated the 'qatestbranch' 7 hours ago. Hopefully we are getting closer to an update.

Well, well... A fantastic season from Ott Tänak has made our Minister of Culture talk about rallying and a dream to host a WRC event in Estonia (Ministry of Culture will help to fund bigger sporting events beginning from 2018). It's great to see that our government is finally recognising the importance of rallying in our country.
