Daniel Elena

[Daniel]

Meh.

[COD]

Are you guys creating a storm to the waterglass now ???

That is exactly what this is

[luca]

i dont know if you remember, that Daniel was celebrating his 35th birthday on friday
i guess that this mistakes was because of huge hangover pin:, after b-day party not jet-lag or sth ,

I was surprised just how mad Loeb was! Normally even if a driver is absolutely hopping crazy mad at his co-driver he won't say so, we would just say "it's one of those things"..

Does Elena go on TV complaining every time Loeb makes a mistake?

Don't think he was that mad, just upset (and after a huge fight with Marcus all year and now at a crucial stage of the championship, who wouldn't be?) but just told it like it was. Remember that Daniel is trying to be World Champion also!

Not true.

Elena said 130 ++.
-- is for the next corner. No doubt ( I am french )

right... i've checked cause we hear '--' before they go off. But it's for the next corner.
Dani said '130++'

When was that mistake Seb is talking about(the 10years ago one)?? Is that the one when they crash in the old looking Xsara? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=4uYyQqxo-YM

and for the records YES he says ++, Seb knows it right away he starts telling Daniel about it, even before the car stops http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=20ADXN9Y9wg

Hello I've just seen that Daniel Elena didn't mistake!!! In the onboard camera he said 130-- and no ++ like all people say!!!!I am sure I checked many time the video.

I just checked it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20ADXN9Y9wg

Daniel says "130 ++ mi-long tard ouvre, et ferme 130 -- plus long etc... " the 1st 130 should have been a --

So yes Daniel Made a mistake. They both acknowledge it so i dont really understand why there is confusion.

And yes Seb was not happy, but i understand his frustation. Anyway rallying is team work, you win and lose with your codriver, so whose mistake it is not important.

"130 ++ mi-long

So it's "mi-long" that sounds like "Milou", the Tintin dog. I've been wondering.

No.. Tintins dog is called Snowy.... Now that really would have confused things!.. but at least he'd have got round the corner.

Seb said 1st mistake in 10 years, not 1st mistake for 10 years, similar but totally different statements.
Shiney tar/driver error caused the crash you mention
