Maybe they should have kicked one of the duo, the ones who don't play the whole season, in the ass and engaged Tanaka. Yeah, they've been talking on the phone since

Agreed, Tanak should have gone to Toyota, Evans to leave ms, or max Ford.

That's right, in the last 4 seasons, being second in the World Cup standings 3 times, that's a definite exit from the World Cup... But then again, what about a guy like Neuville? And who, besides Tanaka and Toyota, has the right to drive for the factory in the World Championship???

I'd put Pajari, Solberg etc in their places, TN in Hyundai for 10 years and nothing, just a few wins, Evans is broken from 2020, 2021, put new blood in the team when those who have been there so long probably won't move on..

Look at Kalle, how long he's been at MS and made a mockery of Evans. Evans must be riding like a pig by now, Neuville even more so, and "beak" Kalle has 2 titles, no matter how much he has paved the road, the title is not going to ride itself. Talent is talent and it's an art to admit it, if I have it, I don't. We listen to the show to hear those interviews after the stages, the races, the beginning of the season, getting used to the car, etc. God, Neuville, no matter how many years/experiences he sits there, he must have something in him that others don't after so many years/experiences, right?

Because Sunday is scored separately, like Saturday + Friday, only these points are conditional on completing Sunday.

Just get over the points system for this year, it's been going on and on ...

It does, but as a fan who has been watching it for decades I am totally disgusted by it this year and it goes against the idea of a rally.

And maybe you - how many races/titles have you won in the world championships that you deny us the right to write an opinion? Or is it that watching rally for 40 years, painting 50 races a year a patent on rallying sanity and we, "losers of the speedway", can't express our opinions? 🤔

I totally agree, I haven't laughed like I did reading the comments after Sardinia in a long time. Sure well, the points system isn't fair in that the winner doesn't take the most points, but on the other hand the crews are forced to keep pushing which automatically makes it more interesting. Nothing more, nothing less.

I totally agree

It wouldn't make much difference anyway. Someone would say that the track is cleaner on the turf, but on the asphalt, those who go longer have more pull. I'd abolish this nonsensical scoring for Saturday and Sunday, the same for powerstage points and be done with it. I'd give the points like it used to be in the old days...

One hundred percent agreement.👍👍

Exactly as you say,it's more worth it how the famous rally goes,39 km of stages in almost two thirds of Sunday,that's really a feat...👏👏👏👏It's more like a festival of fucked up time.But that's the trend nowadays,that's also the Czech championship,ERC,the only place where it's relatively good is rallysprint.

The reason for this is that everything has to be online and AllLive. And so there's a lot of waiting.

Fila67 - you are a real demon! :-D . ;-)

Thanks, I know the truth is hard,but I have it in me since the Comanche.Have a good day.👍

You're a real tough guy, you always make me laugh - but hard! :-D I like people with opinions, not parrots, we don't always have to agree with everyone, but we can comment. 👌 Good luck.. :-)

Overall Neuville 122, Tanak and Evans 104, Ogier 92

Well, it's getting pretty messy... one more Thierry's failure (which is not impossible, on the contrary, we are waiting for his "favourite" fast gravel) and there will be 3 roosters again...

We can take Elfyn out of the fight, we already know that. It's either Ott or Thierry, but Ott will do.

Well, I'd still be careful. Toyota should start playing it up and it only takes one good result to make all the difference. But right now, it's gonna be more Otto.

And what kind of a travesty is it if everyone goes to Efyn to help him when he can't do it with his own abilities/speed? I wouldn't want a title like that, he wasn't happy about it. I didn't use pull-ups in school either, either I had the skills or I didn't..

So they don't have anybody else there. Or they can focus on the brands. It's got nothing to do with any picks, it's a team sport.

Toyota can pray that Kalle actually drives a full season next year and beg Ogi on his knees for as many races as possible this year.

I don't get this Kalle guy, 23 years old and he's already got some problems, mental? Motivational?And the argument that he's been doing this since he was 5 doesn't hold water with me.He and his team should realize that he has fans who want to see him in action and not see him rest.What would others give if they could ride, for example, his friend Semis.In the words of a classic.Kalle, get your head out of your ass and start riding.Your fans are waiting for it!!!P.S.He will retire.Peter Semerad, can you tell him and translate? Thank you.I will bite this season,but from next season I will be at full power.😉

But the times are very different now than they were 30 years ago. Riders are much more stressed through media, events around, studying onboards etc. We only see the highlights - riding in the car. Fans are not fans, it is Kalle's right to choose what he wants and doesn't want to do. He is talented, he will always find a job and why not try something else in life (if I have the opportunity and motivation) than just 15 years in a row driving the same car. That you are his fan is fine, but how much money did you send him during his career to be able to claim you want to see him in rally? Pull your head out of your ass and get used to the fact that people don't have to do things your way. Yeah, and others would give anything for it, but they can't drive like that and they don't get results, that's all. Totally fer.

Thanks for your opinion, I respect it.Fair enough, but I stand by mine.

How can you knock someone out of contention for the title after the 6th round? I don't know, guys. After Kenya, Ott was knocked out and now it's clear that Elfyn has no chance and Thierry won't make it.

It's really a clown, TN made a mistake yesterday - blackout and today on 4 rz 39 km and PS wins and has 12 points, really idiotic system. All in all he is up to 19, a loss of 50 minutes. It's getting pretty boring, and the whole scoring system looks to me like it's set up for TN. to finally have the perpetual second title and be done with it. Is this really supposed to bring in new factory teams?

But TN won't even help the new system, that's the biggest asshole.. :-D :-D

Let's see.😉 Big congratulations to Martin and Otto 👏

No, we won't. We'll see second place. Anyway it's been a TN massacre at Hyundai for over 10 years and nothing, can anyone imagine "developer" Loeb or Ogier in a Hyundai for that long, what a space rocket that car would be? :-D

Brother-in-law, the new scoring system has helped Neuville significantly for the first time this season. The fact that he helped Evans in Sweden in an extreme way is no one's business anymore.

He also helped Neuvill on the Safari, where he finished 6 minutes behind Evans and scored 3 more points. In Sweden, Evans finished 2nd and Neuvill 4th, so I wouldn't say the new scoring helped Evans there as he had a few more points.

What about Monte? There Neuville would have 30 in any case and the others would have no chance to score extra points.
