They aregiving better chances to ford teams (Ford or stobart) to get more points compared to their teams

He is fighting with the S2000 on stage times this rally!Quote:

Not anymore ;) . Henning is actually doing OK, will loose his 4th to Atko, as expected, but compared to most of the guys he's doing good for a tarmac rally.Quote:

Yep it definately validates S2000 as a formula if in the right hands they can keep up with the slower WRC's (which makes up a lot of the field). If you see these cars being driven hard they will look a lot better on the stages too - not to mention sound better.Quote:

A wheel was thorned off and lying in the middle of the road. The others juniors stopped to investigate the situation and offer help to the Dutch crew. Weijs and his navigator are reporting to be OK.
D*mn, he was looking for making Dutch rally history.
Ego sometimes gets into way of fame... Such clause would guarantee best possible treatment from the team.Quote:

morganmilan: Why for Prokop? He was standing at Weijs and he will get time from marschals. I only hope Aaron stood there as well at least to find that the crew is ok and not only drove around...
Of course, Mirek, sorry...I´ve understood Prokop was out of the rally ;)Quote:

So, all juniors are given time from first run because all of them stood at Weijs.
According to wrc.com Weijs is in hospital for precautionary check-up, nothing serious fortunately.
