We’ve seen these false dawns before.

Ott Tänak gets himself back into a place where he looks as if he can be world rallying’s dominator again, but it doesn’t quite materialize.

However in the last two World Rally Championship events he’s finished within 10s of the rally win – and probably would’ve won in Portugal had his power-steering not failed. Is this week’s Acropolis Rally Greece Tänak’s time to pounce and really assert himself in this world championship battle?

And what of Elfyn Evans and Kalle Rovanperä ahead of him? Is Evans still the favorite, and is Rovanperä’s form being slept on?

Colin Clark and David sit down to preview round seven of this year’s WRC, featuring the usual banter and diversions in conversation you’ve come to expect from the pair!
