Ah, my bad! They did seem pretty quick the few times he passed me by, albeit dragged down by roadsweeping duties in those two proper Friday stages. By Saturday morning, they were a bit too far behind to make much of an impression but his improved road position helped him rise through the day. With all the chaos, I wasn't paying as much attention to them, as it happens. P4 in two stages in the afternoon loop (in what also seemed like a slightly slower Fiesta compared to the top Hyundai's and Skoda's) was proper impressive. If the rally were a bit bigger, it would've been fun to see if the gap to Ernesto Cunha and Pedro Meireles could be closed.
