Fantastic time by Kubica on SS1 !!! 9" off Robert only :D

Guigou 5s front Ogier :)

wow, massive time from kubica! and sarrazin pretty mutch off the pace.

Any idea what happened to Sarrazin? He's not that slow for no reason.

Also very promissing result fron Gill Nanet with Porsche 911 GT3.....But Kubica, oh my god!!

he went off road in stage 2, maybe something was affected on C4???

Also Dumas in his Porsche went off and is out of the race. Guigou is destroying competition in R3, Ogier included.

guigou rock´s like hell! everytime i saw him live, i felt he was at absolute limit. great driver!

here´s some other video from the shakedwon witch is worth watching:

Yes Guigou made a great time and Kubica is flying also..... Finaly Snobeck went off again in stage 3 the C4 is 5 meters down off the road.

results link please :)

Ogier has been rather disappointing for me as has Abbring. Kubica is on league of his own. Now in proper competition he shows what class he is!

yes, youre right. for ogier theres maybe the excuse that the car isnt so fast on tarmac by now, but abbring is really slow! and tirabassi is also a little too slow, especially on stage 3 he had lost a lot of time.

Also Italian drivers with r3 clios very big differences with their French mates.
thanks for the link Mirek :)

Anyone that has seen the Megane N4, is the 0 driver pushing it or just driving trough? Something from Renault Sport on it?

"The 0 driver" is French 2009 champion so I expect him to push for comparison data ;)

Yes, but I am not sure if Nikara will use this as he is now on the retirements list.

Kubica on the limit :) 1:10

By night, I don't know a lot of driver in France able to be faster than Cédric....

Any thoughts about Irish driver Martin McCormack who is currenly leading the Citroën Racing Trophy(only 1"4 in front of Guillaume Sirot) and Swiss Laurent Reuche who is second of the Volan 207(behind Germain Bonnefis) ;)

Looks like Ogier will be first on the road again?

Besttime for Tiribassi, who is taking 15 sec out of Robert's lead. Let's see if he can continu this pace, then he might be dangerous for Cedric Robert. Kubica again continuing at same pace as yesterday, doing great stagetimes. Guigou is 1 sec faster as Ogier in R3. ;)

Waoooouuuu such time of Kubica again in stage 5!!!! Guigou still front Ogier...

Tirabassi is in his garden, Cédric has problem with cooling smoke inside the car and seems to wait for the long stages, Roche is not any more there....

Stage 6 Ogier wakes up!

Tiribassi is taking another 5 sec back from Robert, wich means he is only 16 sec behind. Let's sse what will happen on the long stages.

Ogier is going very fast on this last stage, beating Guigou quite heavily and coming back untill only 0.5 sec adrift overall. :eek:
