When Ogier choose the same tactics he is not a worse driver, but an equally sensible one.
In your dreams, the fact that Ogier made mistakes is exactly because Loeb was raising the pressure on him. If you look at the splits you can clearly see that Ogier was allready loosing some 7 secs before he went off, loosing about 25 sec extra in the adventure.Quote:

Some driver pick more puncture because their driving style (Petter), that has nothing to do with luck.Quote:

You make you own luck in backgammon: if you pick the move that gives you the most chances to get good dice you will have good dice more often. To the profane it appears that the program is lucky, to the educated one they can see the reason and know it is not due to luck.
sure he can :D :D :D :D :DQuote:

That just proves the fact that the problem is the handbrake. He lost more time than his off because of these problems, not mistakesQuote:

Well, I tell you that: Loeb has just been a coward not to enter a full season against Ogier and deciding to enter only his favorite events...
Why don't you just write a letter to Mr. Loeb to express you feelings?Quote:

Now that he is not lucky anymore he prefers to do only few rally's, but he is lucky again that there is nobody again that can challenge him... Luckily we don't have to follow too much rally's where he is competing, because those are so boring.Quote:

I agree, it's pathetic how a certain buch of people in here use the word "luck" to describe why their favorite driver didn't win and when their favorite driver wins it's because of skills.Quote:

Girls, girls, girls... Stop fighting.
Looks like Mikelsen fights Sordo
Sordo clearly faster as Prokop, so he is going to pass him in overall standings after this stage.
You mean when he was told to slow down from 8th to 11th for Loeb to gain a point?Quote:

Novikov has no chances for podium
These splits are really a pain all season long...Quote:

How about any live-TV from PS?
Sordo is 30 sec faster as Prokop, so he is passing in front of him in overall classification.
I thought when Loeb had that roll. Ogier had his chance at that moment.Quote:

What a time for Latvala :eek:
What a time for JML!!!
JML on the podium now, just passed in front of Novikov
Let's see if JML can take the power stage as well or is Seb Ogier going to try to take the three points?
My prediction for the Power Stage:
- 1.) JML
- 2.) Novikov
- 3.) Ogier
My prediction for PS:
1) Ogier
2) JML
3) Ostberg
My prediction for PS: Ogier, Hirvonen, Latvala
No opinion for Latvala and Novikov for power stage, thier tyres in worn conditions compare to other
Power stage about to be going live...
Novik - off ! Lost 40sec .. :(
Mikelsen beats Sordo :)
