Just hope Kris doesn't get nicknamed 'Krash Meeke' this year.

Here's a video of the test prior to it going rubber side up:

He does have a bit of a reputation in that regard, taking after his old mentor :p

Those conditions would be like driving on a frozen lake. And no snow banks to the rescue either.

@weeloaney the Fermanagh man will feel right at home :grinning:

Would love to have see Mikkelsen drive a few rounds in it, see what it can do.

"I took it pretty easily on the first run. And then I said to myself that I could push a bit more because the confidence was there. In the end, I set a good time and I'm very happy about it! I’m pleased with how recce went for us. The conditions of the roads themselves are better than they have been for a good few years. We just don't have the snow banks! If you make a mistake, you can end up in a ditch pretty quickly…"

"I don't think you can read too much into the results of the shakedown. With the new rules on tyre allocation, some drivers decided not to push. Personally speaking, I wanted to drive fast to confirm my feeling in the car. That's what I did and I'm pleased with how it went. There are very good conditions on the roads. We now have to keep an eye on the sky and see if the snow begins to fall!"

He said he would drive like 'he was going to the shop for bread'. Some bread run!

Hoping Tanak has a good weekend- deserves it after Monte.

Download the redbull tv app and you should get it, either that or bt sport or wrc plus

I have the redbull tv app, WRC plus and BT sport:oops:
Couldn't see it on the schedule
Likely only Rally radio. Should have said 'it starts at 12:20 GMT'.

Apologies.

JML is flying today, second on the road & pumping in the splits! The car in front…

He certainly is let's hope he can keep in this rhythm and his Cool

Would certainly love to see him win it. He certainly deserves too
