Loeb 9.56.8

[GigiGalliNo1]

lol

[WRC2006]

There is mistake in spilts time!!

[teufel]

Could be Marcus the next stage winner, please?

[WRC2006]

Marcus is slow?!

[Erki]

No, Joge got out of SS2 but lost more than 10 minutes.

[SubaruNorway]

Flodin did Rally Trøndelag i Norway last summer in Stekkas EVO, i think the Pirellis are better when it's realy cold.

[Helstar]

Yes it's fixed now, must be +5 min each stage for super rally rule I think.

1 LOEB Citroën 09:56.8 +00.0
2 JOGE Peugeot 14:56.8 +05:00.0

[A.F.F.]

Joge is already joining the superrally... at least it seem so.

[GigiGalliNo1]

Shall I make another prediction? :D

[WRC2006]

Flodin did Rally Trøndelag i Norway last summer in Stekkas EVO, i think the Pirellis are better when it's realy cold.

Pirellis are bet even on the wet gravel. That is why the Guys with Pirellis are doing well

[harriswrc]

Who is J. Joge? Same time as Galli?! Ah who ?!Joge retired at 2ns stage, he took 10mins penalty for 2nd stage, and no penalty for 3rd stage, following new superrally rules .

[leno]

garde start very fast on ss4

[GigiGalliNo1]

Garde` doin well!

[A.F.F.]

Now Toni is setting the pace over Petter, Sebastien and Marcus.

Big Boys must really drive today :)

[Erki]

Looks like Joge is out now - +5:00.0

[Helstar]

Pirellis are bet even on the wet gravel. That is why the Guys with Pirellis are doing well
Gigi on Pirellis, then who ?

[A.F.F.]

Garde doesn't want to give the second position for Gigi. This is going to be awesome. :D

[WRC2006]

Gigi on Pirellis, then who ?

Sorry, I made a mistake. I know only Galli in Top 10 with Pirelli

[Halvard]

Petter is losing. not good

[Erki]

Garde doesn't want to give the second position for Gigi. This is going to be awesome. :D

He gave already! :laugh:

[leno]

i think this is going to be the most interesting relly in the season

[Helstar]

Last year two Mitsu ... Carlsson not on Pirelli I think ? And they were very close ... today better Pirelli. Mhhh.

[GigiGalliNo1]

Petter is losing. not good


If that is TRUE, the Galli = 2nd now, Solberg losing = DOWN the board = Galli No.1 like my name and Garde` 2nd?

:D

[WRC2006]

The Impreza is like that. Maybe a driveshaft problem again

[A.F.F.]

He gave already! :laugh:

I knew I should have wrote "without a fight" but I was too anxious to write that post. You live, you learn. ;)

[leno]

damn Petter speed up

[Perra71]

Svedlund is fastest on SS3 in Group N so far

[Halvard]

i think this is going to be the most interesting relly in the season

so far or overall??? it not much competition

Maybe this will be a great year.

[N.O.T]

Road position seems to be important in the first few stages....

[A.F.F.]

I think we have to go back a couple years in Finland when was the last time a rally started as interesting way as in now. You guys recall?? Harri and Sebastian Lindholm top two with 307s.

[Peugeot206WRC]

Last year for slowson in wrc?

[leno]

so far or overall??? it not much competition

Maybe this will be a great year.


so far

[teufel]

I think we have to go back a couple years in Finland when was the last time a rally started as interesting way as in now. You guys recall?? Harri and Sebastian Lindholm top two with 307s.

But crashing out in the first half of the rally, it was in 2004 right?

[A.F.F.]

But crashing out in the first half of the rally, it was in 2004 right?

Yes, I think it was.

[GigiGalliNo1]

Galli on stage!

[Helstar]

Gigi on stage. I'm a little worried no Latvala and Pons splits :s ...

[Mauri A]

Galli on stage!
Forza Vittorio!

[Helstar]

LOL the radio ..... the girl said "Gigi Galli on stage" and the man shouted "Guuoooo Gigi" seems like a Samurai shout :D

[teufel]

Gigi on stage. I'm a little worried no Latvala and Pons splits :s ...

Latvala didn't have splits on SS3 either

[GigiGalliNo1]

Galli is 0:01.9 sec slower, solberg knows!!

[Erki]

Gigi on stage. I'm a little worried no Latvala and Pons splits :s ...

Latvala hasn't shown any splits today, no problem hopefully.

[A.F.F.]

Gigi on stage. I'm a little worried no Latvala and Pons splits :s ...

I'd be more worried Galli having no splits. ;)

EDIT: Oh, there they are.

[Helstar]

Forza Vittorio!
I think you understood everything ;) you're the man :D

[GigiGalliNo1]

LOL the radio ..... the girl said "Gigi Galli on stage" and the man shouted "Guuoooo Gigi" seems like a Samurai shout :D

I missed it! I was on the phone WRCFan to in Japan!!

[GigiGalliNo1]

Nup galli no good in 2nd split :( :( :( :( :( slower then henning, gronholm, mikko

[Helstar]

Latvala arrived !

[Helstar]

Gigi behind Petter 3 sec on split 2

Carlsson made it ... 7 sec behind Loeb

[Halvard]

Should we talk about Wilson or just let it be?

[WRCfan]

I didnt hear anything but was on the phone to Matt in Aussie!!!!

[GigiGalliNo1]

LoL

Come on GALLI!!

faster then carlsson on last split! nearly done!! :D

[leno]

i think,Galii is going to be slower than Petter

[A.F.F.]

Should we talk about Wilson or just let it be?

Considering there really isn't much to talk about, I'd suggest we let it be :s

[Helstar]

Galli is going to lose 7-8 sec from Loeb too

[Peugeot206WRC]

SLOWSON GO HOME... slower then someone who never driver a WRC car before... embarrasing

[Mauri A]

Should we talk about Wilson or just let it be?
Let it be for the rest of the year!

[teufel]

Should we talk about Wilson or just let it be?

There are much more interesting drivers at the moment now ;)

[Nikey]

i think,Galii is going to be slower than Petter

He´s slower than Carlsson

[Helstar]

Wilson The Child .... gimme a call when he's 30 years old.

[WRC2006]

Should we talk about Wilson or just let it be?


Ohh the Kid?!! Let talk about him next year!!!

[GigiGalliNo1]

Gigi says: "Didn't feel well, i dunno i was behind on pace i prefer not to push alot and make mistake"

5th over all

[ttiirika]

According to drivers' comments the road on SS 4 was more clear of snow. This makes sense when seeing those results. It also makes me a little bit worried for tomorrow, Loeb (and hopefully Grönholm too) can be very very fast, but then it will the same old again. I hope that Garde, Galli etc. will be able to stay up.

[Peugeot206WRC]

Ohh the Kid?!! Let talk about him next year!!!

He probably wont be in the WRC next year.. they talked about it in the service park

[leno]

where do you find comments what drivers said after stage?

[A.F.F.]

Brilliant first loop for the morning :bounce:

The battle in grouyp-N still continues.

For the afternoon my prediction is that The Big Boys will charge to top. The conditions favoured the late runners much in the first run so it's likely we'll see Marcus and Sebastien in top again :s

[Halvis]

Great first loop for Henning and Petter. Henning is usually faster on the second run of the day, so I'm really looking forward to it!

[GigiGalliNo1]

where do you find comments what drivers said after stage?

Me? haha I'm a fast typer! ;)

[Helstar]

where do you find comments what drivers said after stage?
WRC Rally Radio live... reported also on BFG site I think (and Sweden Rally official site)

[WRC2006]

He probably wont be in the WRC next year.. they talked about it in the service park

Unless Dady said so.

[Mauri A]

where do you find comments what drivers said after stage?
BFG site, and according to the comments Kopecky thinks he´s driving on tarmac!

What's also great, all top five are driving five different cars :up:

Yea, and 5 different stage winners in 5 stages...

edit, I mean 4 :)

[Fly]

Araujo is doing ok! Excellent time on ss4 (3rd between Sohlberg and Aigner) Have Portugal finally found the driver they've been waiting for for years? I wish.

[Helstar]

Yea, and 5 different stage winners in 5 stages...

And after half hour of stages, we have 11 people in 30 seconds !

[Finni]

Next loop is interesting.. My personal nightmare is that Loeb pulls out from everyone. This is possible if he had same tyres with grönholm in the first loop - then his speed was superb considering Grönholm's slight advantage by road-position. Let's see how it turns out.

[WRC2006]

That is Loeb. He is the specialist in playing the "waiting game" and giving to impression to others that he is not doing well. I am sure, now he is going to push and you will see him leading the rally at the end of the day.

[GigiGalliNo1]

you will see him leading the rally at the end of the day.
BAaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

if that's tru, no more excitement for me here! :P

[kleisj]

http://www.zone.ee/wrcmasters/analyzer.php?rally=2&stage=4&results=2&jwrc=

thank you

[miksu]

Just for your information. My name is Henning, and I`m from Norway!

Makes me rather happy right now...

I am also Mikko, but im not that happy because of it, for some reason, im for Garde!! ;)

[J4MIE]

BAaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

if that's tru, no more excitement for me here! :P

...time to give up then!

[GigiGalliNo1]

smart a$$

[jonas_mcrae]

please Loeb stay there! dont be greedy LOL

[J4MIE]

smart a$$

Would you dare bet against me though? Just stating the obvious from what everyone has seen over the past 3 years.... thought more people would have nioticed by now.

[WRC2006]

BAaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

if that's tru, no more excitement for me here! :P

Yeah maybe it will be better for you to do another thing now!! Haaaa!!!

[GigiGalliNo1]

meaning bet on that he'll come back to no.1? I think he just might, not arguing with anyone.

[GigiGalliNo1]

Yeah maybe it will be better for you to do another thing now!! Haaaa!!!

HAHAHAHAHA

[Madeira]

The portuguese champion Armindo Araújo, is doing a good rally until now at PWRC. In SS2 he made 2 spins and lost lot of time, but after that he increase his pace, and in SS4 he made a really nice time, He was 3rd fastest on the PWRC competion I think! :bounce:

[mdesign]

Araujo is doing very well, specially knowing that a week ago he did never drove on a snow rally :)

[JAM]

Very good indeed. The only stage that he made without any problem was 4th on Group N overall. Second rally on snow is really good. But let's wait by next stages... its still early for parties :)

[Peugeot206WRC]

27 min left for next stage

[A.F.F.]

Marcus will choose different tyres for the second loop that's for sure. Also, no more road sweeping for the first cars, better yet, in tight places there might be difficult places for late runners.

Yes, Marcus and Loeb will run away but I wouldn't bet my balls it's Loeb who'll lead in the evening ;)

All Hail to Marcus :hot:

[WRC2006]

Who do you think will be leading the rally at the end of the day?

Petter?!!!

[miksu]

Marcus will lead. Im kinda confident about it ;) But, im hoping for some surprice, like Toni :P

[Peugeot206WRC]

Who do you think will be leading the rally at the end of the day?

Petter?!!!

Yes, or Grönholm...

[WRC2006]

2.1 sec is nothing for Loeb. But I wish Marcus to finish the day leading the rally too.

[WRC2006]

Yes, or Grönholm...


Petter don't, unless one of the rest 3 guys make a mistake or have a technical problem. I think Petter he has been lucky because on his position on the road and now it is going to change I think.

[Halvard]

Time will tell. 5 min until ss 5 and this gonna be interesting. Loeb said that SS 4 was equal for most drivers. Only problems with snow on SS1 and 2. Make sense, when looking at the times. But, then again, I guess Loeb has more to come with.

[WRC2006]

Now the Guy is on the start line!!!

[HaCo]

Next stage is running... :D

[Peugeot206WRC]

Petter don't, unless one of the rest 3 guys make a mistake or have a technical problem. I think Petter he has been lucky because on his position on the road and now it is going to change I think.

Maybe thats right.
But I hope its not, I dont want Loeb and Grönholm 1 min in front of the rest of the drivers :(

[Peugeot206WRC]

Loeb 3.6 faster on 1st split in Likenäs 2 then on first time on the stage

[Halvis]

Last time split 1 Grønholm was +1.3 from loeb, now -1.5.

[HaCo]

Gronholm 1,5sec faster than loeb on first split :D Hope Mikko can be faster than loeb :D

[Mauri A]

Hope Sordo isn´t blocking Marcus this time.

[Halvis]

Sordo much, much closer now aswell.

[HaCo]

Atko faster than Loeb... PERFECT!

We should have a chat channel :)

[Halvis]

Marcus -6 on Loeb on split 2 - great stuff!

[HaCo]

Hope Sordo isn´t blocking Marcus this time.

Did he block allready you mean?

[Peugeot206WRC]

Atko faster than Loeb... PERFECT!

We should have a chat channel :)

Yea, that would be so much better

[Halvard]

6 sec.... thats much

[Christina]

hey guys! ah.. how good is it to be in sweden?! i'm glad i have to stop relying on sms updates now!

I am hoping for a good rally with some strong battles. Gigi is doing so well!! i have already instructed pino to give him a hug from me! I hope Jari-Matti finds some pace, any reason why he has dropped back?

[HaCo]

YES, Mikko faster!!

Can no one arange a webinterface chat channel?

[miksu]

OMG look at marcus pushing :p

[PMM]

Sordo faster than Loeb beetween splits 2-3.

[Mauri A]

Did he block allready you mean?
On the first round Marcus passed Sordo on this stage.

[Halvis]

Sordo actually gaining on Seb into split 3!

[Halvard]

11 is even more!

[HaCo]

+11Sec for Loeb!

[janneppi]

Factory Citroens on wrong tyres?

[GigiGalliNo1]

Hey Tina!

[WRC2006]

Factory Citroens on wrong tyres?

Is that possible for Citroen?!

[Perra71]

Loeb lost time when a helicopter whipped up snow in front of him :(

[Halvard]

Petter loosing a bit to Marcus, but still happy

[PMM]

12,1 seconds! \o/

[Mauri A]

Loeb lost time when a helicopter whipped up snow in front of him :(

Ford´s chopper?

[Peugeot206WRC]

marcus studs are gone, he sounded not so good :(

[Halvard]

Garde still going strong. Impressive

[GigiGalliNo1]

Ford´s chopper?

better be :P

[A.F.F.]

I hope Jari-Matti finds some pace, any reason why he has dropped back?


He has to finish this rally. So that's why he's only on 95% speed.

[teufel]

hey guys! ah.. how good is it to be in sweden?! i'm glad i have to stop relying on sms updates now!

JML was advised my Malcolm to stay on road...

[Christina]

It means VAI GALLI!

hahaha

if only was an H would be

Hullu Galli!

ah.. but it would be Hullu Gallo, ya crazy chicken.

and following along those lines, a little something i learnt in finland..

Gigi Galli ay ay!
Gigi Galli oh oh!
Gigi Galli ay ay!
Gigi Galli ale' ale'!!

[miksu]

Its gonna be 1-2 for Marcus and Toni i think!!! :D :D :D

[A.F.F.]

Heh, we go hand in hand teufel :p :

[Halvis]

JML was advised my Malcolm to stay on road...

Isn't that always a good advise? :laugh:

[WRC2006]

marcus studs are gone, he sounded not so good :(

Good news to Petter

[GigiGalliNo1]

ah.. but it would be Hullu Gallo, ya crazy chicken.

and following along those lines, a little something i learnt in finland..

Gigi Galli ay ay!
Gigi Galli oh oh!
Gigi Galli ay ay!
Gigi Galli ale' ale'!!

Crazy Chicken? ahahhaha

[White Sauron]

Don't think Marcus' tyres are so different from others. If he lost studs - then, others lost them too. No worries...

[CABAIO E'LONA]

Go Marcus!!!

[Perra71]

an ex-rallydriver who is reporting on swedish radio said Marcus tires were fine and he thinks it´s tactics :)

[WRC2006]

Don't think Marcus' tyres are so different from others. If he lost studs - then, others lost them too. No worries...

Or others are saving their tires for the next stage while Marcus is pushing hard?!

[Finni]

Don't think Marcus' tyres are so different from others. If he lost studs - then, others lost them too. No worries...

Except possibly Loeb and Sordo who are no losing possibly because different tyre choise.

[teufel]

Isn't that always a good advise? :laugh:

It is one of the best advices! ;)

[Halvis]

One thing is sure, Marcus took less time on the others from final split and in - don't know if that's a sign or not..

[Gard]

Don't think Marcus' tyres are so different from others. If he lost studs - then, others lost them too. No worries...

He said he should have been a bit more coutious. tire choice is also important to how the studs last

[Halvis]

Henning going good, 3rd on final split!

[Peugeot206WRC]

No split yet on Carlsson :'(

edit: now it is

[CABAIO E'LONA]

Petter Solberg: "no brake all is ice no snow, very dificult"

[Halvis]

Will be interesting to see Gigi's times now when road position isn't that much of an issue!

[Mauri A]

One thing is sure, Marcus took less time on the others from final split and in - don't know if that's a sign or not..
Anyway, Bosse was fastest on last split.

[GigiGalliNo1]

galli on stage! :D

[CABAIO E'LONA]

Marcus is leader.

[Halvard]

Carlsson is a bit behind. Too bad.

[wacked]

henning moves ahead of loeb in overall..

[Peugeot206WRC]

Carlsson too slow on 2nd split :(

[CABAIO E'LONA]

vamos Gigi!!!!

[teufel]

Galli pushes :hot:

[GigiGalliNo1]

vai gigi!!!

[jonkka]

Three drivers exactly on same time at split 1!

[Finni]

Galli leading with Bosse and Petter after first split! It's nice to see that he goes well along with Citroen.

[wacked]

Galli as fast as petter and marcus on first split..

[A.F.F.]

Latvala having decent pace. Galli on the other hand having a top pace again :up:

[GigiGalliNo1]

look at the 2nd split of Gigi!!!!

[teufel]

keep on the road, Gigi!

[GigiGalliNo1]

he stopped!?!? wattt

[Perra71]

I kind of wonder if Galli isn´t going a bit to hard, hope he doesn´t plant it in the woods, I mean it´s a new car for him.

[janez l.]

Galli is really driving at an amazing pace, hope he keeps it on the road. And....finally a rally where things at the top are interesting.

[Erki]

Gigi ditched it?! :s hock:

[Peugeot206WRC]

NOOO.. Galli cant sotp

[A.F.F.]

Latvala move past Stohl. :up:

[teufel]

hope it's only gps for gigi

[J.Lindstroem]

Galli stips on stage???

noo??

[Perra71]

Just heard that Galli ditched it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WRC2006]

Now is the the time to Petter to step down?!

[WRC2006]

Now is the the time to Petter to step down?!

[J.Lindstroem]

+4:09.0

[Peugeot206WRC]

osteberg... hahaha

[teufel]

At least he could continue...

[Halvard]

Not good, not good at all.

[A.F.F.]

Galli could have easily lost even more time. 4 minutes at the first real day isn't too bad. Go Galli :)

[jonkka]

Have you noticed that the first crew having a gap bigger than 10s to previous one is 11th overall? It is very tight and already fifth stage...

[WRC2006]

wat happened to Galli?

He got stuck in the snow

[Halvard]

when is ss 6??

[GigiGalliNo1]

Galli: "ah nothing we i i went a little bit off and ah there was no more bank/barrier and i went off and lost a lot of time and there were alot of people to get me back on the stage"

18th now overall! argg

[Tomi]

I think a talk with Solbergs shrink would do galli good

[GigiGalliNo1]

Galli: "ah nothing we i i went a little bit off and ah there was no more bank/barrier and i went off and lost a lot of time and there were alot of people to get me back on the stage"

Galli now

[Halvis]

Henning nearly on the podium now, very, very good! Also, Østberg is doing well, 11th on this stage - and improving!

Galli might have been overdriving a bit?

[Peugeot206WRC]

Next stage: 14.49 swedish time (25 min)

[Mauri A]

when is ss 6??
BFG site "index".

[WRC2006]

Something he has never done before :laugh:

[GigiGalliNo1]

Galli now 18th :(

[jonas_mcrae]

damn he was playing with risks at that speed, poor gigi hope he keeps up and and finishes with points

[janneppi]

Paasonen's disease is a difficult one to fight against. :p :

New fight: Galli vs Sordo :D

Sordo
Galli +10.4

[Halvard]

Galli now 18th :(

I`m really sorry, but he showed what we knew. He is one of the best. And remember .... no forget it. I tried to write something funny but couldn`t come up with something.

As we say in Norway. Its fun to have sex, but its really good to go to the toilet (not for a piss, but the other thing, don`t know the word)

[A.F.F.]

Paasonen's disease is a difficult one to fight against. :p :


That is the reason I've always admired Galli so much :D

[WRC2006]

Something he has never done before :laugh:

Because he didn't have a competitive car in the past ?!!! LOL

[harriswrc]

Jimmy Joge retired due to gearbox problems and he will not restart with superrally.

Sébastien Loeb
Citroen "It is impossilble to drive in the stage. The second half was worst than the first. There was a helicopter bloweing snow everywhere. I couldn't see a thing."
Daniel Sordo
Citroen "It's ok. The split with Markus (Gronholm) was very fast."
Manfred Stohl
Citroen "In the begining I had the same feeling. There was no grip."
Daniel Carlsson
Citroen "It is very exiting. Brilliant conditions. Very nice."

Chris Atkinson
Subaru "It's quiet hard. Some places are deep with snow, some are gravel." Jari-Matti Latvala
Ford "It's hard. There is a good grip on the road, but a lot of snow on the side. It was hard to keep inline."

This is Veronica Engan that Colin was talking about http://www.eyvindbrynildsen.no/?side=kartleser

[WRC2006]

I`m really sorry, but he showed what we knew. He is one of the best. And remember .... no forget it. I tried to write something funny but couldn`t come up with something.

As we say in Norway. Its fun to have sex, but its really good to go to the toilet (not for a piss, but the other thing, don`t know the word)

Please come on with the word Halvard? Recall please?

[Finni]

Galli might have been overdriving a bit?

True, he was driving with pace we could expect from Loeb with Xsara. Granted that he was first time racing with the car little testing under belt his speed was perhaps too perfect.

Last year Gardemaister drove with exactly same car and he often hinted that it's not up-to-date compared to work-ones. That was also supposed largely in this forum. I wonder how galli went so well if his Xsara was remarkably underdog to Kronos' ones.

Funny when one driver calls it impossible to drive when another calls it perfect conditions!
It ain´t easy to please rallydrivers I think ;)

[wacked]

5 stages and 5 different stage winners? whos winning the next stage..
SS6 started, loeb on stage..

[N.O.T]

stage started sordo and loeb rae at the start...

[miksu]

Is it so, that when tyres get too hot, the rubber doesnt keep studs still and they sort of "bend" under the car, and thats partly where the lack of grip comes?

Apparently Seb had trouble because of the helicopter, and if it has followed him for the whole stage it was not distrurbing the next ones.

[Perra71]

Miksu:
Exactly

[GigiGalliNo1]

SS6 started, loeb on stage..

It's Hennings turn now, he was very close the last time. Don't really believe it, but it would have been nice..

The key to winning this rally is to go 95 % without errors, I think. The real attacks won't come before tomorrow?

Perez Companc have been consistently faster than Wilson, but had some offs this last stage and loose some 40 seconds

[White Sauron]

[Perra71]

they have one guy there, he cannot jump between stages like a Luke Skywalker (that is, if Luke Skywalker could walk on the sky)

[SubaruNorway]

[Perra71]
