It's funny how they stuff their food with fat, sugar, salt and other taste intensifiers but their beer feels like a little breeze of nothing in your throat.Quote:

If a beer style has "American" in front of it, it stands for "stuffed with hops". You just need to find the correct brands. Macro lagers are pretty much the same everywhere in the world, but craft beers have some diversity. And flavor.Quote:

Thanks EstWRC. I believe we’re all ok, as most of us are from the North and the affected region is a bit far. Still, the whole nation is at shock. We’re sadly used to forest fires and to have one or two fatalities every summer but not to a tragedy of this scale, affecting so many people in such a violent way. Time to sorrow the victims, support the survivors and hope it won’t happen again.Quote:

Thanks again mate. Hopefully Andre, Flying Tuga and the others guys also are.
Yeah, this really is a serious disaster. And it comes to me the low weight of our discussion on rallies and conditions on ERC topic. Just take care all portugese friends.
(But I do like Finland WRC round best of all)
Is that his house? Screw it I'm moving to Finland.Quote:

People, relax. Save your nerves, still a long way to go. Have a nice good drink and enjoy the summer (or winter for the guys on the other half of this sphere)
No relax possible. Countdown for Rally Finland already started. ;)

Look at this.
ACI warned a punch of fans to not transmit live facebook of Rally San Marino because they have not the rights. And that is valid also for the video post event.
They did it through a private profile of the person who manage their website.
How stupid is that?
If there is a TV deal in place or anyone is paying the ACI money for coverage then it's not stupid.
It's short-sighted I would say. And by that I mean it's probably not in the best interests of the sport.
The Epic Rally Tribe guys have a point in that they are providing a service that the organisers can't or won't. I don't know the details of their contracts though so no point to speculate.
I've said before that if I ran a series I would try to empower fans, or groups of fans, to try and create content.
rally poland thread is closed and its painful for me to watch this again :p but anyway here is the difference between Neuville and Tänak at that corner

we've been testing on that stage yesterday, still tricky places as it's stilly quite muddy.
34 kph extra entry speed will do that I guess. Reminds me of the great phrase - "the speed was good, the corner was too tight!"Quote:

Don´t forget the LIVE Bar Talk at Trattoria Sokos Hotel at Paviljonki Service Park Thursday 15.00. Will you be there?
Subjects:
- Is Toyota WRC entrance a success? (Would love N.O.T. to be in)
- Who wins Rally Finlaand 2017?
- Will Seb wine about starting position or not.
- Meeke - will he reach finish?
tz. etz.
See you guys. I´ll be wearing a orange Richard Burns Foundation T-shirt and a beer in my hand.
and I will be next to him, probably wearing some my company clothes (PanteAlex)Quote:

Yeah, right.
Things will get very interesting now in championship. Ogier must now really up his game pace wise...Even Lappi has more stage wins now than him...no doubt that Ogier has been the smarter one but no doubt that Neuville has been the faster one...If Neuville doesnt bin it in next few rallies then this smart driving to third or fourth place from Ogier isnt enough anymore if Neuville finishes higher. Both had amazing season end last year.
Tänak and Latvala are in the best seats now IMO...they will just mind their own business and watch as these two leaders fight and if they both bin it then these two are right back in the hunt again.
Jumping ahead bit, but how do you think the drivers will approach Rally GB and especially Rally Australia if they're very close in the championship.
Running first on the road last year seemed quite difficult in Australia. If you can manage the points to be just one or two behind after Rally GB would that be better than leading going into the final round?
Another consideration is the dust too.
Been a long time since we've seriously had to consider trying to manipulate the running order for an advantage.
It's a bit of a sign as to how exciting the combination of getting rid of VW and changing the cars has made the WRC!Quote:

Hmm I did a highly scientific google search.Quote:

So the WRC-only harvest:
- Hanninen at same place as Neuville and Lappi but the only one to got as far up. I estimate 5 plants.
- Mikkelsen at Mittlemosell II, 2 plants
- Sordo didn't seem to hit any wine (some fail)
7 plants * 4 = 28 bottles.
Not that bad is it.
The grape at this stage is too sour, they must add sugar to it to reach the desired grade, from the sugar you might have bad handover. The team doctor says don't drink too much of this wine, the team boss says it might also affect your stage times.
Only if you want cheap nasty wine. Norm for a quality vino is one bottle per vine.Quote:
