Think I heard they had some problems again today. Matching the top PWRC's is hardly setting the world on fire :(Quote:

I just noticed that in the last one Lindholm lost to some group N cars!
He is now saying that Suzuki is not going straight. Evidently it had to be race circumstance in order to notice that. All videos and incars have seemed just like that (oversteering like a little pig)
I have always thought that little pigs understeer!Quote:

Well, after asphalt specialist Bernardi was complitely unable to do anything were you really expecting that the car is faster in more demanding conditions?Quote:

I somehow find this rally a bit boring :(
Itīs like the end of an era, with the next year not looking that initeresting at all. guess i will have to focus on pwrc...
Common Magnus, the PWRC is so exciting. :)
do you mean the car or driver?Quote:

You can't have one without the other the driver needs a car.Quote:

What can he do? It's not Lindholm's fault.
there is not much point homologating another bad car.Quote:

they have tried markko martins input for rally gb, and that obviously didnt work. as for markko, no disrespect, i dont think its possible, after two years out of wrc, that he could be driving car to its maximum, and therfore giving meaningful feedback.
ok, if the car is not going in a straight line there is a problem, but picking a man of near 50 years of age, on a rally that he last done almost 10 years ago, is strange.Quote:

You are right it is strange Buzz. I suppose if it was Gardemeister or someone similar going that slowly then that would surely make the team look even worse. I'm just annoyed because I would love another good team in the WRC but the signs for next year dont look great do they.
Ouch some spectacular pictures of the Mikkelsen roll on Getty:

What about managing to be faster than the group N cars ??Quote:
