Interesting, I admit I didn't have time to watch much today. Yesterday it was different.

One weird thing is also what I posted yesterday. Citroën had much higher top speed on the SS1 than all others. I wonder if they realy need it. With all those hairpins and junctions the shorter...

Of course it means something. Nobody ever claimed otherwise.

The thing is that you claimed it was more valuable than the driver's championship and that's not true.

How about to read what I wrote before you quote it?

They have been around for quite some time and haven't won any title. And they badly need to win anything. The manufacturing title looks to be the easier goal because they don't actually need to...

The most important (by faaaaaar) is the marketing value of the title, i.e. its public recognition.

Why? Since when do the public recognize more the team title than the driver's title? I'd say nearly everyone following any motorsport at least a bit knows the name of the WDC but only the hard fans...

I don't know the figure for Fiesta but officially it's 275 mm for Polo R5. I assume it is similar.

Changing dampers may lead to much more radical change in the whole car setup. Each case is different and IMHO there is no such golden rule.

One hint. If you copy others you are always like a railway carriage in the train. You can do what you want but you will never come to the railway station ahead of the engine.

They have all their own know how and strategies and moreover they have to deal with different mindsets and strategies of each manufacturter. Fortunately the number of variations in the whole system...

He used Sachs only on asphalt, I think.

I like that Budar doesn't speak some ambiguous political nonsense but gives himself a clear and publicly presented goal to win the championship. Thumbs-up from me and good luck!

Not really, this time they don't carry a big Czech flag on the car like they did in 2011 :D

Come on, You can't be serious. Loeb is long time retired guy driving just for fun. It's not like he needs PSA for anything. He brings the value not the opposite.

Nasser will do RX with Škoda.

They just found this discussion...

Nothing. I believe he is thinking about to stop himself. Of course I may be wrong.

I think You didn't get the point. Let's see if Ogier even continues next year. I don't bet on that.

Nobody is going to sign Ogier for 2019 as it seems.

I wonder what they were thinking in Citroën before. For two years we've kept discussing the fact that their driver line-up is weak but they didn't seem to care to get a proper top driver. Now when...

Citrën openly admits that this year they are the team with the lowest budget.

Škoda will likely come only in 2020 with Fabia IV based car.

I don't think that anyone of us would like them leaving but the other thing is to see the futility of their effort. One simply has to ask why the hell do they do that? Why do they keep humiliating...

IMHO There is no sense in any half-arsed effort because that is simply bound to fail. You either go for it and give it what it needs or you don't do it at all.
