Re: Rallye Monte Carlo 2014
OK, once again I have nothing against Kubica, but there is something wrong the way he drives.
On every video I've seen so far, he's just going all over the road, making wide turns, struggling to control the car.
Is that bad? Well, I guess not, and his times confirm that. In fact, his stile is kind of attractive to watch.
I just have the feeling that he's always on the limit.

Mikko actually won RMC in a Fiesta, albeit in the IRC back in 2010.
But to answer Astro83's question, he wasn't really fast. IIRC he only won one stage and just had a steady drive with good tyre choices (and a different brand of tyre to everyone else)
Yea, I know that he won in 2010 in IRC but in WRC he has not ever been successful but one second place then? How some he most hate this rally...He's to slow, it's not okey. At least he need to do some 3-4th stage times to be ok with his experience.
But I really hope that he will find the speed that he has under the season. Otherwise, this will be his last season as a factory driver I think.

Nice memento from Meeke for his compatriot Paddy Hopkirk - 1964 Monte winner. Hope it continues to bring him luck... ;)
