Well done Ogier .... bring on Spain :D
Congrats to Sordo!
3 drivers in 3 points , with 2 rallies to go ! And now Mini proves they are competitive for the victory :) WRC is now becoming really interesting I must admit , only Mikko is dissapointing the whole season . However , here is again , in the title run again . I think a epic Seb vs. Seb ego battle continues , I wouldn't like to be in Quesnel's skin now :)
I think Sordo is good with MINI on Tarmac, new car but not sure if really in a seasonal challenge to beat Citroen... Just like, I will say it NOT McRae in a Skoda on Gravel; good driver on their specialty surface in a car that others were not so good in.
Congrats to my favorite team: MINI :D
Congrats to Ogier and Sordo. Championship is not as boring as it used to be, however I think Ogier is definitely away for the title fight after all we heard this weekend from team principals. Loeb should have it easy seeing is opponent is Hirvonnen.
So Latvala took 1point from Ogier and Hirvonen, advantage Loeb...
Concrats to Ogier, Sordo and to another podium to Petter. Also congrats to Tanak and Brynhildsen.
Yes, he was :D So shame have this guy commentating. But we have Live Power Stage in country and it's great!Quote:

Big bravo to Sordo for the 2nd place while almost a year without competition.Mini and Sordos pace show a lot about why Ford is not capable to beat Citroen.
Speed of the car is there,but not from start of rallies.When they are fast is to late at usually 3rd leg,and others cruising.
Latvala show us speed,but definetely this is not enough when you have both Sebs as rivals.I haven t checked properly but i think that in last rallies both Jari and Mikko have exits from road at 1st day very often.They are very lucky that after all these exits they have managed to be so close to Citroen(at least Mikko)
Definetely they are veeeery lucky with all these mistakes.Exit from road for 15 meters and not touching a wood is pure luck.
Big dissapointment Mikko,there is no speed at all.Even when he says that he will go for the power stage points.Think that the best Mikko could give to wrc is already given.
Another point is that till now while slow,with so little works participants he was always 3rd or 4th gaining points.With Minis entry and next years VW entry that is not going to happen.Speed would be more necessary than just constitent.
Another dissapointment was Hanninen.This mistake wasn t for his class,while the gap was 2 minutes.
If Citroen is going to lose championship,i wouldn t like to be at Quesnels position.
Definetely 100% responsible for all the crap already from Mexico.
ps we have to remember that the asphalt expert absence from this rally.Without him is not so safe to measure speeds of rivals.
yep, another Malcolm mistake. Or it's a gift to JML for slowing?Quote:

Not that I would be cheering for Mikko, he seems to be very lost all the time. "Yeah let's take it steady and try to avoid punctures." And he's fighting for the championship win. It should be 110% attack every single metre of stage á la JML-talk!
Yes really - the only time Ogier was truly safe was SS22 &23. ou don't think he would have risked a New Zealand do you? That would have been unprofessional. He was a worthy winner because he had to fight.Quote:

Exactly because he didn t risk,he wasn t at his max speed.Quote:

Most dinosaur spectators are like that here in greece as well, so you have my sympathy...
Ogier was manhandling sordo whenever he wanted to...
This forum has become some sort of a disgrace, thanks to couple of members here. And now it seems that few more individuals are following this trend. Pity!Quote:

The rule should be that the fastest driver should win.
i prefer to bash than kiss ass...Quote:

you can suggest whatever you like but you start to behave like adult person should, NOT like 13 years old pubertyQuote:

Criticism is based on facts and suggestions, not just stating you subjective opinion thousand times all over again. If you have nothing new to say then just don't write. Over the last year there's nothing coming from you, like a broken CD-player going all over again and it's affecting more "pshycologically unstable" persons like yourself. Pity!
PS! I still like to keep an eye on some of the posters who actually know what they are talking about, those guys are still keepin' it up!
i always base my critisism on facts...
there is always the ignore function and you should use it instead of crying.
Back from a good weekend in France!
