    Does anyone know the draw of the nations cup?? I cannot seem to find what countries are against each other. In the end will start in a few hours...

    The draw for Race of Champions for tomorrow can be seen from the video. These are the groups for the invidual competition.

    gr.A: Kovalainen,Loeb,Bleekemolen,Baguette
    gr.B: Kristensen,Priaulx,Doohan,Pastrana
    gr.C: Vettel,Edwards,Albaquerque,Foust
    gr.D: Schumacher,Prost,Plato,Parente .

    The track looks to be okey,even when it looks somehow even smaller than before. Atleast them has got it a bit more wide and by this has got some more interesting and powerful cars into line up. Such a shame that there won´t be a rally car... so in that term RoC has lost even more of its original idea.

    hmmm, wonder what will be the first car to have a crash this year at the actual comp. Somehow think that it will be an Audi R8 LMS(unfortunately) or an FJ Racecar..

    Quite a good Nations Cup and Germany beaten GB at the final 2-1 . Still even when I like about the RoC and keep Germany as a good winner I don´t know what should I say. Its entairtaiment yes and the circuit isn´t really that big but when Germany drives the KTM X-Bow and RoC buggy almost at every heat,it doesn´t leave a good taste. Even the tie brake was with RoC buggy what Schumacher can really drive. Same last year, didn´t saw him driving too much with the other cars. Don´t get me wrong been a fan of Schumi. Okey also as its at Germany, its acceptable to win at home.

    Hoped a good result for Team Nordic but as Kristensen was bad,them were dropped. Then hoped France to succeed,because of Loeb but them made a wrong decision against GB at the semis. Loeb would have had a change against Plato with Scirocco.

    Can´t wait to see champion of champions event at tomorrow. Also Mouton´s roll with the S1 was a really sad sight,even when a bit funny.

    I think this event has totally lost it's appeal to (most) rallyfans.

    Rallycars aren't even included this year. Damn...

    I think you're a bit kind to say it's only rallyfans to whom this event has lost a lot of appeal...

    Since it isn't anymore on Gran Canaria with nice gravel, I don't follow this event.

    Do you saw the prices? Incredible.
