    I don't think he does well when there are really tight corners, Hockenheim was the same for him in as much as he struggled to match his normal pace.
    You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

    Kristofferson penalized for his overtake of Timur Timerzjanov in the final heat which was considered to rough by the stewards.
    Kristoffersson had therefore been moved to last place in the final. http://www.vf.se/sport/bilsport/kris...ter-svartflagg

    Let's hope it's the latter.
    On norwegian TV they said that Petter had new software, to get more grunt on lower revs, or the Barcelona track.
    That might have worked, but it seemed he lost too much at top speed, and was overtaken several times on the "straight".

    I guess he will change back.

    He didn't seem fast out of the hairpin either, quite the opposite actually so whatever that was didn't work..

    I thought that, looked to me that he was struggling for traction...but then most people seemed be be slow there.

    On another note Andrea Dovizioso has been testing with EKS today, looked reasonably rapid

    No Mattias Ekström at Estering RX then. If he would be there surely they wouldn't need to do a Facebook presentation. https://www.instagram.com/p/BKn8ZAEgkSk/
    I assume this means that the Audi bosses likely have decided that Ekström is needed in the DTM race that weekend. They have the chance of getting double champions.
    Both the DTM driver title and the World RallyX title but seems to have decided to cede the latter to Petter Solberg.

    Damn that sucks. In many ways. If Petter narrowly wins and its down to this, that will piss him off. Hollow victory.

    Back in LyddenHill, Ekstrom and Petter were joking about this situation. (About Ekstrom having DTM and RX on the same day)... around 4:30
