    I think if they took the No 1 status off Jari and made him and Petter equal,the pressure that is causing these slip up`s would decrease. It`s good that they are standing by him, but I think he would relax if he and Petter were equal.Some people can`t handle this type of pressure.

    Agree, no point to put a guy as first driver who's only chance to win anything is if 2-3 cars from the front run in to problems.

    donīt agree,at least in portugal petter set faster stagetimes than Jari Matti on saturday, on sunday his startposition was worse....and if Seb makes no mistake, i doubt anybody can challenge him, maybe at a single stage but not for a whole rally (except on ice and snow).
    But as allways: time will tell!

    I think Latvala was just not in the mood on Saturday, after going off on Friday. Generally he is noticeably quicker than Solberg. There's just the little matter of keeping it on the road.

    But not Estonians, because we hate ourselves too much to be patriotic!

    I cant agree JM is "noticeably" quicker. Last year I had a similar argue with an estonian about Tanak v. Hanninen. Stunning stage times dont have any value if followed by a crash soon after that. The first one posts faster times only because he is driving over his limit while the other one is keeping just below it. On the short run (flatout) comparison they are quite equal so far. In PS and Fafe it is 2-1 for Petter while in qualify's it is 2-1 for JM.

    Exactly, if you take a close look to all this years rallies sofar Solberg has not been faster anywhere and wont be in the rest either, that is called realism.
