Monte Carlo 2011

Did Juho say that he had one snow tyre in front and the other in back.
And of course one intermedium front and the other in back.
They had the same tyres with Solberg and still the gab was 30 secs.

Also Amaxopoulos Dimitris with rented ds3 is going well for his first Monte

Raoux with clio r3 is 7th fastest at ss lol

Only the last 2 stages turned this way. Up until then we had a great battle for the first few places, now we have a different one. Tyre choice is all part of the game.

Maybe I'm being cynical but are you sure your dislike doesn't have a little bit to do with the performance of your favourite drivers?

I think so, I think he said they had a cross pattern.

Kopecky and Hanninen had same tyres?Big gap between them at last ss if so.

I think Kopecky had all inters, Juho had 2 snow tyres.

Hänninen had two spare snow tyres but Kopecký just intermediat
