back to topic, its great to see another team compete at the front on merit, I'm pleasantly surprised at the way the Mini is progressing, I'd be surprised if it isnt good on wet UK gravel/mud too, Prodrive have a long history of cars working quite well there
You almost have to expect Meekes crashes, he IS McRae's protege after all right? :D
Besides, he got in the habit when he was trying to put the 207 on the pace of the Fabia.
Can't wait to see what the Mini will do in Spain.
I think he takes Colin's mantra of "If in doubt flat out" very seriously. I mean, until he crashes or the car dies, Meeke usually set times that are comfortably within the top 10.Quote:

As for the car itself its in a good path, still slower than Citroen and Latvala showed it might be a bit slower than Ford as well...but next year if they continue from where they left off i think they can do more podiums and maybe on other surfaces as well.
People seem to forget what McRae was like, oh and Ogier, and Latvala and many other blindingly quick drivers. Once again this forum shows how little people know and that they're just talking absolute bollox.
yes Mcare was like that....how many titles did he win ?? and how many manufacturer titles did the teams he was in won (none with ford and 3 with subaru and with citroen sainz and Loeb was the reason they won the title) ??Quote:

I incorrectly thought he had recced all events last year, seems strange to me that he didnt, its not competing but it still helps to build knowledge.
Yall get a bit prickly when any says anything about Kris, I think for this forum anything said has been very mild, there are a lot of people who wish him well, just some are more blinkered than others.
