It's good that the guys driving skills anyway is ok thats what they are hired for, I never had any problems to understand what Loeb or Petteri say in interviews.

If you have a French Driver, French Co-driver, pace notes in French, French Team and French Manufacture. Do things get communicated better then a Norwegian Driver, Welsh Co-driver, English Pace notes, English Team and Japanese Manufacture?
