I bet it didn't look half as good as it looked in person.Quote:

Boohoo! Don't rubbish something you haven't seen in person :) If you'd been there and seen what I saw you would have a different opinion.Quote:

At the end of the day the original event was inaccessible to most people then from that PoV what's the point? If this was a serious event I'd be right there with you complaining but it's not so why not appreciate the light hearted nature of the event and appreciate the drivers that you can see and the level of car control they show. Why should F1 and touring car drivers go drive on a specialised surface (gravel) and make a fool out of themselves when the battle can be fought on a fairly level playing field and we can see some close racing. I for one am glad Michael Schumacher was there. Say what you want about his sportsmanship and Ferrari but by god the man can drive a car with a level of control that most can only dream about. Fair play to him showing up in overalls in the colours of the charity they were sponsoring too.Quote:

If it was up to me the 5 cars would have been
Xsara
Punto S2000
Quattro S1
Aston Martin N24
RoC Buggy
Itīs all fake! ;) About Michael Schumacher....... :rolleyes: Why he wonīt to drive the Focus and he said, I must have that yellow solution F in the final?Quote:

Hey he lost anyway :)
Marcus didn't drive any of the non-Ford producst so you could say the same of him. Drivers have contracts. That's all really.
Why do people have to be so cynical and negative about what is essentially a great event. Don't like it? Put your best of the 80's rallying dvd's in and watch them leave others to enjoy what is a great event :dozey:
