Technically, there still was rubber on the rim.Quote:

Morning. Seems first on road is disadvantage but on the other hand advantage for Seb due dust.
It seems that even if Loeb sweeps roads there is no match at all ... WRC ?
Wrong ! it's LRC (Loeb Rally Championship) ^^
edit: oh there, it's the dust ... the guy has all the luck not only the skill xD !
Besides, I didn't think Petter would have even tried. 2nd o/a is much too important for Subaru to risk losing.
GARDEMEISTER T. "Lot of dust, I saw almost nothing. Moreover, some water came from somewhere to windscreen and we have no wipers."
WHAT ? No wipers O_o ? Omg Suzuki ... what the hell are they doing ?!
Seems that Atko is pushing hard even if surrounded by dust ^^ X-ray vision ?
100% confidence to pace notes. Just like Richard Burns in RAC 1997 - caught and passed Auriol in full fog and took rally lead.Quote:

We can safely say that indeed the new Subaru has some potential ... maybe xD
I can't see the point of making Gigi drives, he is hours behind and totally pointless to risk damaging the car... yesterday they said they wanted to save it for Turkey rally.
No splits for Loeb in SS15 either... :eek:
Loeb finished ss 15...
What is his time? EDIT: I see it
Nooooo...Quote:

Looks like he will be there.Quote:

WRC.com have him as retired at control 16. No reason.
WRR just said rear suspension problems.
Withdrawn?
Interesting points position at the end of this one:
- Loeb, after his 5th win this year, will move back into the championship lead from Hirvonen (who strangely only has one win :s hock: ...Mr consistent here) by 2-3 points.
- Mikko's about to move 25 points clear of Latvala in the standings - time for Ford to put their effort behind him.
- Atkinson will still be 3rd despite the car seizing up... Although he's going to be some 16 points of daylight between him and Mikko who'll be 2nd.
- Sordo will be one point behind Latvala
Hopefully Subaru haven't shown their full hand yet. Mind you, it took them until this year to get their '06 car to look reasonable!
Now Hennings engine keeps stopping Oh... Mikko is closing... surprise... NOT
Henning loses so much that he'll drop a lot...
That´s it with Henning!
poor poor Henning
Where is Latvala?
Edit: fastest!
Where's Latvala now??? :confused:
Just feel sorry for Henning, seem he will score no one point at the end :s
don't have splits on him...
OK Latvala was fastest of SS17 ;)
Where is petter?
Off topic, but Hänninen´s co-driver is Markkula, not Markulla.Quote:
