    Better to have all the offs during the testing.. and now they were able to practice how to get back on the road as quickly as possible and how to drive with wrong tires :-) Some people practice tire changes.. if you remember the number of wrong tire selections by Solberg and Latvala in 2012 then their new team is doing right thing :-P

    Being on completely wrong tyres is nothing unusual during Rallye Monte Carlo

    Yes, absolutely but in all points. He, despite loosing lightyears to those on winter tyres, still showed he CAN drive on bad tyres like not many others. Remember he had same tyres as Solberg? Watch how these two compared in those two stages. If I remember right Juho was some thirty seconds faster...

    He drove like crazy like always. Petter was quite dissapointing then..

    Many say it's sad that Petter is gone, but it's for the best I think, Gronholm stopped on time and Petter did that too, and yes it's a big personality gone.

    But Juho has that in him too, not so crazy like Petter but he has some interviews that were quite funny. Sanremo retirement will be a classic one! Also the one after Barum where he pushed very hard, he couldn't maintain his laugh! One thing is sure he'll drive drive as crazy like Petter but more efficient than Petter in his last year I think ...
