*****The official rally Argentina thread*****

[Pwig]

What do we think on this one?

Anything out of the ordinary?

[Allyc85]

Blimey, the long gap since Mexico makes It feel like we are starting a new season!

Can't see anything but Vw domination, especially with no official Citrroens. Hope I'm wrong though!

[GravelBen]

Big gap between rounds isn't it! And then I think another month until the next one after this.

Looks like Paddon blitzed shakedown, not that shakedown means much but good for the confidence.

[Pwig]

Paddon is on fire!

[Alex Langheck]

It'll be a VW demonstration......Hyundai may show the odd flash of speed, but will fade...and Ostberg will be consistent but will be 4/5th quickest throughout the event.

If this thread gets into 2 pages I'll be amazed.

Evans only 6 seconds off Camilli on ss2 despite having a puncture for 4km!

Ogier leads Paddon by 0.6 after ss3.

Bloody hell Paddon is still on it.

Evans is out due to an electrical issue

[GravelBen]

Hayden is going well but Latvala is flying now, even faster!

[Allyc85]

Shame for Evans, M-sport seem to be having a few issues recently.

Live super special stage at 4pm.

[GravelBen]

Paddon and Latvala still cranking

[Allyc85]

Great battle at the front, who is going to crack first?

I thought that was Camilli!

Though Kubica was very fast when he wasn't crashing.

Bit like me on Dirt Rally then

Shock horror it's Latvala!!

[chrisgtx]

Glad to see Paddon doing well.

[Allyc85]

55km to go with a 30 second lead over Ogier, who I'm sure would love to rub Latvala's face in it. Should be interesting tomorrow!

Very unlucky, front strut/suspension mount failed sending him off the road: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9w_vMvK3ZXo

As far as I can tell he was on the swept line and didn't cut.

[Allyc85]

Yea it does seem pretty unlucky actually. I do wonder if he hit something before though?

Fingers crossed for Paddon today!
