    Nice to get Duval back in action with more competitive car than that Fabia was. Hirvonen and Sordo are getting strong challenger for podium fights.

    More competitive than Fabia? Well, Kopecky has been faster with Fabia than Stohl on some occations this year, so dunno about that.
    Blessed are the woodheads since when the flood will arise they won't drown.

    So no Suzuki deal for Duval then...

    Can't say I'm too familiar with that saying?!

    Anyway, I'm hoping Duval can get his career back on track with this Xsara deal. There's too many good drivers out there wasting away. Duval, Toni, Gigi to name a few.
    Hopefully this second Kronos car makes it's way down here (NZ) as well.

    I think Gigi would've been a much better choice for Kronos, but IF Duval can keep from wrecking out on the first day, I think he'll finish somewhere in the top 10. Agreed, there are WAY too many good drivers w/out race seats. Hope they're keeping up their "chops" in Regional/National rallies.

    Anyone know what ol' Tarmac Ace Gilles Pannizzi is doing right now???

    I'm not saying Duval is not a great tarmac driver but as far as I remember Sordo is also bloody fast on sealed surfaces, and assuming the C4 is more developed, or to put in other way the Xsara should not be as fast, I don't think Duval will be a real challenge for the podium.
    There WAS nothing like rallying, Superrally is a joke!

    Probably Duval will be the driver with the most retirements ever in the WRC. I doubt if he can stay on the road.

    It would be really good for Ciroen if Duval could steal the 3rd place from Bosse on tarmac, so I think we'll see a radical change in Kronos' performance...
