maybe that is famous gymnastic cordination what loeb has.
^^ He would have been pissed off with the long wait. In aus when he crashed he was asking a friend if he could get a lift back to the service park in his helicopter, wasn't able to due to the excess cloud cover.
@GF
lol
a repeat of 2001.... in these conditions nobody pushes... its more about avoiding stuff... and running down the order doesn't help....
they are very close to dont push, as they are.Quote:

Lets see who has the balls to fight at these circumstances with 10 only soft tyres
Weather conditions have improved compared to the ones visible on the pictures (previous page), currently there should be some light showers and some very heavy showers and thunderstorms are possibility for the day. But the amount of water that came down during the night and morning was huge, temperature is only around 10..15 degrees, so even if the stages escape from some showers, they should be in pretty bad conditions.Quote:

Will be interesting for JML since Colin Clark said he used softs on the first run through ShakedownQuote:

edit they changed his split from +45 to +27 now :mad:
what caused Loebs crash is from my point of view the total loss of practise driving in darkness and, which is important, combined to the pressure that was on Citroen due to their less good position yesterday evening.
On a different tack...
George Donaldson commentating on WRR? Gee, isnt that just massively below what this guy deserves?
I mean, the guy obviously is what can be classed as an expert in world rallying, but surely being on radio is such an insult to his professional career IMO.
Why isnt he working with Prodrive atm?
If he turned left when he was told to turn right it is more of an rookie mistake, he should get the "Latvala treatment" from forumers :DQuote:

George was commenting for rally radio last year as well. At least in IRC events he did. If I'm not mistaken he is not working for Prodrive but for Subaru Tecnica International (STI).Quote:

I'm amazed by the number of expert analysis. Every time the same. Every single person sitting in front of PC knows perfectly what the best drivers in the world made wrong and how useless they or their teams are. It becomes really funny repeating again and again...Quote:

Sea of red on the splits screen - PVM Jr said there was a 0.5 meter water splash. Tanak reported stopped
The most funny is that Loeb explained the reason.Quote:

I am wondering if Petter will be allowed to win, if both (Jari and him) make no mistakes?!
My point of view is that Loeb is spoiled for 8 years, driving during business hours with a long pause. :rolleyes:Quote:
