"It's just unacceptable": Elfyn Evans doesn't mince words following the tow truck incident

On Friday in Portugal, Elfyn Evans had some bad luck. On the one hand, he was opening the road and therefore had to sweep the road throughout the day and, logically, lost ground even though he managed to limit the damage. "Some stages were a little more affected than others by this sweeping effect, and even though we lost time, we lost less than we lost last year in the same context, so the overall result isn't so bad.", put things into perspective, the Welsh driver, who is currently fifth in the provisional standings, 32,5 seconds behind Sébastien Ogier, his teammate and leader. But the image that marked the afternoon was obviously that of Elfyn Evans stuck behind a recovery vehicle in the middle of the 7th special stage.

Elfyn Evans strongly criticizes the events that occurred this afternoon

Although pilot #33 lost time in the maneuver, he was logically credited with the lost seconds, but it was above all the dangerousness of the scene that raised concerns. "This is simply unacceptable.", Elfyn Evans simply stated at the end of the stage. "I've heard there are ongoing investigations to find out where the problem came from, but in any case, it's clearly not acceptable and it's not something that should happen on a..." rally of this levelElfyn Evans rightly criticized this. Putting that situation aside, we need to regroup for what promises to be an epic day tomorrow. "I hope the worst is behind us, but everything will depend on how the weather develops."added the reigning World Vice-Champion.
