hanninen 22,4 sec beside Prokop.Will he catch him?
This is rallying - accidents happen whether team-mates are racing or opposing teams racing each other...
No-one to blame but Ogier.
Nice for Ford to get good points after a tough rally, punctures and roadsweeping.
You presume wrongly. International media. And I'm surprised if you have missed his comments?Quote:

I'd like to see Ogier switch teams with Wilslow. That would even things up a bit.
Ogier is a tuff guy. He wont take orders from Mr Quesnel at any time. At least he might take order as they were spoken but drive as he want anyway.
What if Ogier contract explicitly said no orders?!

For mr.Mousefart.
Sorry, wrong link.
This is the right one : http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/89763
i see no quote of Ogier there....
Yes, I can post you a link later on. I have to dig from the past, at the start of the season. Takes a while :mark:

But this is for you, like you didn't know already, that Quesnel has promised both drivers equal chance of winning and that there are no number 1 driver in the team. Do you honestly think Ogier wouldn't use that statement as a proof he won't be lowered to second driver?
Loeb on stage.
could someone post link to working live stream of the powerstage.
i think when someone makes you a millionare and gives you the best chance to win a championship not for 1 year but for the future...you just dance to the rythm. And in citroen there was never a No1 when the season started so i doubt ogier used sordo in his quote....if he did he is stupid.Quote:

So, who is going to win the stage ? Hänninen?
When everybody knew Sordo wasn't allowed to win on tarmac if Loeb was even remotely nearby? I don't consider Ogier stupid. I think he is talented, young, hungry and full of self esteem to beat Loeb and wants to challenge him with the support of his team, team Citroen.Quote:

I think Quesnel meant the drivers were equal before the season started... and he proved that was true by letting this fight happen. Now that Loeb (presumably) has a big lead in the championship, it'd be illogical to not label him the no1 driver, unless he crashes out of a future rally and the points become even again.Quote:

He needs Ogier for the manu championship because there's nobody else that can beat the Fords, except for Petter- and Petter certainly won't listen to team orders. But in the long term it'd probably be an unwise career move.
No, it's too much.Quote:

Petters time???
Just a small question. Can the cars now drive without mudflaps?
solberg out ??
ah ok timing error he finished the stage.
Hänninen in trouble?
Looks like he tried and did a mistake...Quote:

No, that's not his style. This is some big problem.
Block still has a chance to loose his point to Villagra if he continues like that..
Problems for Block?
