Nenuknakinen I agree sorting other things would sort this problem out but this just makes the WRC look worse to potential manufacturers and means it will just get worse. Don't bother with the VCR it's not worth watching.

If you are not intrested on WRC, and have to tell only negative matter, why are you then here?Quote:

Aren't you the guy who comes on all the Dakar threads and complains about it even though you don't like it? :laugh:Quote:

If people can't handle people pointing out flaws in the WRC then perhaps they should see if www.wrcsycophants.com is available and set up their own forum where any negativity towards the WRC is banned. Meanwhile I shall continue to live in the real world....
These inter-team orders aren't the biggest problem for the WRC but in the last week they have been a problem for a lot of people and it's worsened an already bad situation.
With respect, I think this is rubbish. Do you ever voice negative opinions on anything you are interested in but don't have a direct say in? I can't believe that you don't - or anyone else, for that matter.Quote:

My two penceworth, the WRC has fantastic potential - far more than any other Motorsport - for the simple fact of the places it visits/or could visit.
However, it has got major problems, which simply can’t be glossed over. The sooner everybody concerned with the sport accepts this, the better – I still don’t think people realise just how bad it is. The F1A delaying the Promoter role was unbelievable, especially when Max then said he wanted to save F1.
VCR won't do much good when you don't know at what time to set it. Times are nearly always wrong.Quote:

Normally are I the one being not enthusiast and negativeabout a lot of things! :s mokin: :DQuote:

WRC video archive isn't something I take chances with.Quote:

I got to agree. :( What's the point of watching something when you already know what going to happen? I haven't followed a single rally after Finland this year from TV which wasn't the case few years ago.Quote:

I'm leading the pickems now. I think I've used about the same order for every rally. You really don't need to know too much to get the order right. Which is sad.
This pretty much sums it up, unfortunately. If the only thing wrong with WRC was lack of depth...Quote:
