Lappi got 5 minute penalty for driving with blocked wheel yesterday on the road section after the last stage...
Fully agree, the amount of coverage of WRC2 on the daily highlights show is a joke too. Is there a separate show for WRC2 after the event?Quote:

Once the car's washed and the shopping done there's the Indianapolis 500 this afternoon which seems to be attracting a lot of practice crashes this year. Along with Monaco (which was also live although I slept through a lot of it) this is a pretty nice weekend.
WRC2 and WRC3 are a bunch of nobodies with no future and some nice joker entries... no need to have coverage.
That's why I generally just check in on this forum during events. Live rally coverage is a bit sparse here.

And he's in a mischievous mood. "I know it will be a happy event for some people - some people will be happy because the best didn't win."
LOL. he has a slight point though, but still pathetic behaviour...Quote:

Lappi’s penalty destroyed the Finnish drivers’ podium position by class.:(
RC1 = 1
RC2 = 2 (6th after penalty)
RC3 = 3
And starting from the beginning again.
RC4 = 1
we can see later on, fia releases the press conference transcript at some point i think.Quote:

There is no signature of the competitor. Does it mean that results are still unofficial due to an appeal?Quote:

It came out that it was not public road and his penalty was removed... Seems that they do not know where the rally took place.. I was looking the stewards names and I remember that they have done several things that sounded a bit strange to me.. people are different.
Still more moaning about the rules...:Quote:

I say what I think directly to everyone. I have to say something about that. I said at the end of the stage that it was frustrating that the best driver is not winning this weekend. I say that, but I need also to say this is not the fault of Jari – it’s the fault of the rules. It’s like that. He did the job he had to do and especially today he drove as fast as he could to keep me behind and he did it well. Congrats to Jari and Miikka. Regarding myself, I didn’t risk it all. It would have been stupid. I am in a good position in the championship and I have to think about it. That’s my goal number one in the season: I want to be world champion again. Eighteen points is good. I keep the pressure, but on the long one I was a bit too cautious. I conserve a bit too much my tyres. Even so, even if I push maximum I could be quicker, but not overall. I am happy at the end and happy for the team after a chaotic Argentina rally.

It's getting quite pathetic. Yes, he is the best driver in the championship but he behaves really childish.Quote:

These comments are more stupid.
this guy has really ego problem.Pitty that the best driver these days ridicule himself continiously.
the new decision about Lappis penalty

It's getting tiresome already. Rules are like that and they are for everybody. He is the best, no one denies that, but he shouldn't concern too much about the rules, the tarmac rallies are the second half of the season, and this is where he will have the advantage.Quote:

I do understand that it is hard for some people to fight their autism and want coverage of everything even if it offers nothing... its like those people who visit 100 events per year and visit just hairpins or like those who count how many WRCs are in every event without caring about the quality.... these kind of people do things to satisfy their mental autism issues, not because they car about the sport... something like stamp collectors.. useless nobodies compulsive hoarders.... in the old days we even had separate coverage from the production and the s1600 series but it was justified.
Yep...and the guys in WRC's came from outer space and drove their first rally directly at the highest level...no need for WRC2, WRC3, JWRC, PWRC, SWRC, ERC, IRC or anything else either...Quote:

You forgot the national "village" events - they are important sometimes.Quote:

The main difference between the two, talking about respect, is that Loeb didn't need to say everytime he was the best. He let his performances and accomplishments speak for himself, and it was more than enough.
everything i say is high, and fluctuates between skyrocket high to about 500 meters high... the problem is that you perceive my orbit highs as lows... you just have to raise your standards... LOLQuote:
