Splits working again!

Mikko did the same time as in the morning.

Hirvo: "The spectators are building snow walls on the stage. It was a big problem for me."
That suppose to be smart , novelty, funny?? hmmm...!!

Hirvonen after SS5 "The spectators are building snow walls on the stage. It was a big problem for me."

Not good.

Where's Gigi?

Don't we have pino, Jamie and Basher there ??? Moderators are moderators on live event too. I gotta make a phonecall to them and make them stop that.

"I do not feel good in the car, but I don't know whats wrong." - Atkinson.

What does he mean? Is he sick or doesn't feel comfortable with the car ??

But looking at the splits, J-M will get him.

Loeb shown as 5 min penalty so assume he's intending to Superally. Not a good event for Citroen :up: :D

Anyone know of any footage of Loeb's off? Probably a bit early but no harm in asking :)

It's probably Subaru's special virus - compare Petter in Finland.

I think they add that 5min to everyone who retires, just in case. Doesn´t have to mean he would attend the Super-Rally.

Wow Latvala is fast! I like it :bounce:

I just got in and can't believe what I'm seeing :eek:

OK first PWRC are on stage(SS5) ;)


GO SANDELL !!!! :bounce:

Is this called "the only real snow rally in WRC"?

Its like real Swedish sauna :D


nah, just kidding...

Yippee... they finally mentioned my podium prediction in radio. Which I made way before Loeb retired... Feel very proud now :mark:

no diff pressure for Garde...

Galli said :D :D :D

If we can hold this position, it would be a great result for us. But I try to catch Henning."

Sandell pushing really well. And he does great PR for S2000 at the same time. Hopefully he will encourage other driver to consider S2000 machinery :up:

Which leads to a spectacular retirement. :D
But seriously, I hope he does well.

Anyone have any related info?

Overally I think that S2000 is faster than group N car. For instance Dani Sola's times on asphalt last year were better than group N car could ever achieve. Also in Tunturi rally K. Sohlberg was clearly leading ss 1 but then retired due to technical problem.

A short question: Who is the youngest WRC event winner at this moment?

Sandell is wery happy! He says he drives the car like a S1600.

Henri Toivonen. Latvala could break it, but I expect teamorders or Hirvonen just overtaking him. But I guess he will break it anytime soon anyway.

Corsican drivers haven't the PWRC drivers level, I don't think we can compare them... ;)

But at the 2007 Portugal rally(gravel) there were many more GrNs(including Brynildsen and Flodin as top drivers, countless the portuguese GrNs)and there Bruno Magalhaes showed a real value of S2000s !! :up:
