so, he didnt really say anything. just that it maybe wasnt the right decision to give tänak that support but he doesnt say why. he only says he´s not so happy about it at the moment :rolleyes:Quote:

Correct me if I'm wrong but without testing for following rallies and then wanting a solid fast drive from the event is a bit too much to ask, in my opinion. So at times Wilson critique seems strange to me.Quote:

He probably think he is at par with his manager, and theres the key.
He also tought Petter could put pressure on seb1 in germany without risk anything.....
Probably the biggest one is that M-Sport can beat Citroen with much less investment (money)Quote:

entusiast is what rallying have to have if its going to survive. wrc as today is not very interesting, thats for sure.
if you going to know anybody stats, heres mine: im 35 yrs old, married and 2 kids. 7x norwegian champion in bobsled. 19 medals in national championsships in bobsled. im a coach in athletix and downhill skiing. before my bobseld career, i've done telemark (downhill skiing with loose heel), and x-country bi-cycling, and some bigmountain skiing. i've also done some "circuit" car-racing, like swedish "folkrace" if you know. i've also done some motorbiking, both at circuit and offroad. but as an self-emploeey and bobsled-athlet, its not been time to do rallying. if you seen topgears bobsled vs rallycar, i've one of the 3 pilots in that movie, arnfinn (2x olympic bobsledder) is the one displayed, we done 26 runs in one day, one guy can't do that. henning solberg joined me for one run, he said the skills needed was unbeliveble... (reactiontimes and the g-forces)
i've been a voulanteer for all rally norways, some rally sweden, and some national rallies, and spectator at lots of them. i've also been a part of a lots of ec's and wc's in bobsledding, luge and skeleton in lillehammer.
when my daughter is 15, and she can be my coodriver, iv'e going to do rallying in national championships for fun, with a nice car. before that, my family has my full priority.
i'm disqualified to mean anything about rallying?
i've don't know nothing about the other guy, maybe he is a kid? i don't know. i've just ignore bull**** on this forum :)
Some changes in 2013?

Volta Racing with Lancia 037 4WD Hybrid: http://www.voltaracing.com/images/HYBRID-037.pdf
Good luck with this project!
Very interesting. After hybrids concurred Le Mans I was wondering when something similar will be developed in a Rally car... and it was not too late for a concept.Quote:
