    Well. In Belgium I like to watch the pictures. Very nice landscapes, roads and cars look so much different to most of the other championships (color schemes).
    Thanks. Only a pity that the Estonian drivers don't have a good starting number for Ypres.

    yes those local village events with their slow motion competition are very spectacular, all of them full of overweight champions with resumes full of IFs that don't let them shine in the big league...

    if you prefer those parades of rich handless boys than the WRC then i guess the WRC is the wrong sport to be involved in as a spectator

    dont understand that reasoning either, how can some championship be good, if there is not a single guy who can drive a car, Italian Championship, LOL.

    I've only watch 4 or 5 WRC rallies last year and some this year. Since then I've been more concentrated on F1 and IRC.

    Dont worry, it is first proper tarmac rally for all of them and starting behind almost everyone they can avoid those ditches that are full of other cars already :-P

    I dont understand either how can you just "decide" to stop watching certain motorsport or any sport for that matter.
    I never get bored of watching this incredible guys driving on the top level. That matters to me. Close competition is good, but it is just a bonus.

    So yeah, kthxbai

    Yeah how dare Ford and Citroen continue to support a dying series while Subaru and Mitsu throw in the towel. How very rude of them.

    With the amount of money they've put in they have every right to get rules that work for them as they have committed to continue. Skoda, Mitsu, Sube all gave up that right a few years ago...

    Don't let the door hit you on the way out....

    True indeed, Ford and Citroen get all the hate but in the end they are the only ones who stayed true to the sport when Subaru, Mitsubishi decided to left, and ironically those aren't hated at all.

    I found this extremely funny and yet wrong.
