He'll also never get the equivalent of a full factory car or support (unless he scores one with a new manufacturer who joins with S2000).
Unfortunately I think he's pretty much finished as a serious contender in the WRC.
Has anyone heard more rumors about Petter thinking of changing xsara to peugeot 307,
for Acropolis rally?

What could be done is to have a faster car. And given the fact that following a battle with even higher temperatures, such as the Acropolis, the Norwegian admitted that considering the prospect of changing the car, the Peugeot 307 to look like the most likely replacement scenario. «I feel that I am in the corner. Plus, we have fought in several games and we know exactly who we are than the competition. This topic will discuss with Phil and see what we do for the next race. Temperatures will be relevant should consider very seriously what we do. I do not want to waste my time. Surely the fun too, but now we have to sit at a table and analyze the data. I know that with high temperatures, I can not push and go faster »
Well, the whale leaving in very cold temperature water...it clearly resist to high temperatures of Greece :p :

I know you're just trying to be argumentative, but I think its an argument worth having. You can't just state things like 'he's pretty much finished' without at least an ounce of evidence to support it.Quote:

As for 2010, he's already had meetings with Proton and Fiat, and is even planning an event with the Fiat this year if he can fit it in his schedule. If Petter can win stages and get podiums in the Xsara, think what he could still do with the full support of Fiat or any other manufacturer.
I wouldn't like to be a part of this arguement, but I've been expecting much more from Peter...I don't know If It's his fault, or team, or the car, or whatever...I just expect more from him;so his performance to be as high as his reputation! Needless to say, I'm one of his devoted fans...
Expecting much more from Petter? You mean this year or 2004-2008 period?Quote:
