Very entertaining rally and bodes well for future rallies in Croatia. Seems like it was hard on the tyres at some points.
What a disaster for Neuville with Saturday's tyre choice. I just wonder what they were expecting to gain by that gamble. Overall, not as good as it could have been for the team especially considering the general good pace that Thierry had. Nice to see Breen do well on the power stage but he seemed outclassed throughout the rally. Tanak had a quiet one too.
Better in the Toyota camp with Seb's win but have to say, I'm gutted for Evans to lose it by the slimmest of margins. Great drive from Katsuta also but Rovenpera will be mulling his costly error before the next event.
Also a nod to M-Sport for a good showing, particularly Fourmaux on his debut. Surely a star of the future. Greensmith also showed flashes of good pace over the weekend so it will be interesting to see if he can build on it throughout the season.
WRC2 saw a few mechanical glitches feed in for the drivers too but was generally uneventful after Gryazin dropped off.
