OH no my dream has ended ha ha
Same old same old citroen win Ford runners up yet another boooring dusty gravel rally
Dont watch now as same old thing
Rant over!!!
When I see the stage-times after the finish, for me that´s enough. http://www.motorsportforums.com/images/icons/icon14.png
And what happened yesterday!!!
Do you see finally how the French are and how they treat even their own drivers, yes even Loeb their champion since many years? :o
Loeb retakes the lead!
PS: There is rational reason for Quesnel to favour Ogier over Loeb. But he shouldn't upset Loeb in the process.
Loeb is back where he belongs, in the lead !!!
At this pace Hirvonen will never catch top 2 duo.

What a disgrace of a rally. I never thought I would see this level of crap. Quesnels motives are crystal clear. To help Ogier win the Driver's title with his silent mis-management, and even tactics directly and solely against Loeb, leading in the Drivers title points. That's just too much. One can wonder for the remaining of the season, if some unreliable part or poor engine mapping unfortunately would find the way into Loebs car. Yet it's already quite a big mental pressure on Loeb to be squeezed out of the team. I just hope he leave them slaughtered and wins all the remaining rallies of the season.
And this version of Petter; non-talkative, yet not-frustrated, is his standard behavior when under team orders. Which we seen before, for those who pay attention, it just all becomes too obvious this time.
I didn't think I would lose interest in WRC, but this is exactly what this weekend brings.
Let's see some positives. By this way Loeb may decide not to retire but to kick Quesnel's ass in another team which really wants him. I don't say it will happen but Mr.Q works that way it could be possible for Loeb to accept the offer...
Quesnel plays a dangerous game. It does not let 2 Seb decide in a regular sport manner by taking party for Ogier. Beyond of the debatable aspect opposite of sports equity, It began destroying dynamics and integrity of Team; mechanics, engineers etc. Fréquelin without a lot of respect for Quesnel had told risk that would represent any directives aiming at favoring the one where other one of the pilots.
But obviously Thomas Fuller was right when he said: “You can give an advice; who can give intelligence to follow it??"
It's been a great DAY1! Especially with Petter on the lead! :D
Here are some of my highlights at s.s Eleftherohori! Enjoy!
Video footage Is coming In the next days!
Sorry for the long rank! :p

@lcd: with a nice desert :)
Poor Patterson gets lost in the dark: World Rally Championship - Video - Browse All - Greece 2011: Patterson gets lost in the dark
Doesn't seem to have lost a lot of time there.
Ogier syndrome again or not???
I presume that you had to pay your food yourself, didn't you? The way we are pouring 110bln euros there (and further 120bln are being requested), they should have been able to offer free meals.Quote:

I'd love to see Hirvonen make up some time, but with the two sebs up front I dont think it will happen.
It sounds more and more like Quesnel wants Ogier to win over Loeb...Maybe Quesnel is as sick of Loeb winning as we are!
I hope Ogier wins and takes points off Loeb, no one can really be bothered if the championship is won with 3 rallies remaining like last year. In a year when Formula 1 had the closest finish in god knows how many years, it did make WRC look a little tame.
He may not catch them but it is very important that the gap is only 14 secs.Quote:

I was referring to 2010, when 4 drivers had the chance to win the championship at the last round, it made for a very exciting finish, compared to WRC which was won with 3 rounds to spare. Although I agree with you this year, it has been a pretty boring season in F1. I hope Loeb doesn't run away with it again this year, it will make things much more interesting.Quote:

If stages where the rally winner is decided don't interest them,
what does?
Haribo gum candies
From splits of SS17 it looks like Loeb gave up... which gives a chance to Hirvonen.
Question is, will he give up second place as well?Quote:
