Neuville leads Rally Poland after day 1

in #sports7 years ago (edited)

Hi, Steemers!

     Neuville in Hyundai

It's another weekend and another round of World Rally Championship. This time in Poland.

It's gravel event very similar to Rally Finland with very high average speeds on special stages. Last season it suited very well do DMACK tires but this year it's not so good for them. Michelin is under development all the time and it's clearly better tire at the moment.

Neuville and Hyundai combo are the best of the season despite Neuville's offs. But that's the part of the game. And that's why Ogier is leading a Championship despite fact that M-Sport is half works team or not works team at all (but with Ford's technical support).

       Lappi with broken suspension

     Mikkelesen with broken suspension

    repair between stages

      Breen working on the car

    that Citroen looks great when not broken

     high speed - big damage when you go off

Anyway, Neuville leads Rally Poland with small margin of only few seconds in front of Tanak (M-Sport Ford Fiesta) and Latvala (further few seconds). World Champ Ogier is in 4th place more then 30 seconds of the lead and Paddon (Hyundai) in 5th position.

Let the best win!

Looks like a whole bunch of totaled cars haha , must have been a fun time though!

man those cars have an unnecessarily low profile on them . They must bottom out all the time on that mud

I know how easy it is to bottom out on my Golf R. and I dont even have a lowering kit on it . I would be scared to take it on this track.

it's all in the tires ;)

I have the factory 19" continentals, so most likely they are all for show. Not for race.

for gravel you must have 15 inches

nice pic , but last pic make my heart broke to hahaha 😂

Is everyone ok. Terrible accidents.

it's usual to see damaged car on high speed stages

That Crash was terrible
