He is still uploading, I will check it tomorrow tooQuote:

in my view, ostberg deserves a seat in a factory team more than solberg or latvala.
Ostberg has finished top 5 on all rallies he competed in.
Which is part of the secret of his consistency he wasn't pushing to try to beat Loeb as a primary objective.Quote:

In equal machinery I believe Mads will be quicker than Petter but still behind JML, certainly on tarmac for the next season (or never if he has Mikko's mental block)
They are taunting him and waving their private parts at himQuote:

Days 1-3 loading over the next few days.
I think Petter is much quicker than Mads on every surface except snow. There is nothing to suggest otherwise. In terms of consistency Mads is 100x better, and is therefore perhaps better placed to challenge for a title, however on pace alone Petter has and should continue to hugely overshadow Mads for a year or so still.Quote:

On Friday we were watching on the start of Terra Alta 1 and on Pessels 2 ( spot described by Priorat, thank you ). This was my first gravel rally, add rain and I can say that definitely gravel is more spectacular than tarmac. On the second day we were on Priorat stage – two different spots. On the second one Hans Weis has a little moment, Mikkelsen and Al Rajhi were very spectacular going sideways. For the final day we choose the Santa Marina stage (thanks again to Priorat for the precise description) where we met with Phil ( Mintexmemory ), it was very enjoyable to speak to another person from the forum. All in all the rally was great not counting the marshals and most of young spanish guys who were acting like imbeciles.
PS. I will try to make a short video later in the week.
It's the same moment, recorded from another angle, of a video that was posted here before (0:21, http://www.motorsportforums.com/wrc/...ml#post1082321). It reminded me another video from last year's edition:Quote:

How come Tanak's back window is blocked out? Hardly graphics/signage?
It seems like that donut looper in Day 3 got pulled straight out of Dirt 3's gymkhana mode and into actual WRC competition...
It was ridiculous and awesome at the same time. Couple of the dudes really whipped it 'round nicely.
Where can you lose seven seconds? (or the difference between Latvala & Latvala)

Some moment for Hirvonen. Epic scream from some spectator (filmer) there :p
This is why Citroen is faster than other cars on bends. :D

AWD-steering...FIA will not be amused about that ;)
Petter Solberg in his column on crash.net: "Right up until the day itself, the forecast was for dry weather on Friday."
No Petter, we all knew - thanks to the forecasts - that it shoud rain on Friday.
It also looks that the windscreen has a new aerodynamic design.Quote:

They're saying thanks too, in its different meanings.

PS. Sorry about the poor filming and editing but it's my second try :)
Yes some cars are cut too early in the gravel section but overall the clip is very good. Clean, pure, no irritating pop music, no retarded intro, no mixing the corners.
The second place is outstanding, I have cut it and will keep it in my PC.

Thanks a lot for the good words! You are right about the early cutting of some cars in the gravel section, but the footage was awful - you see somebody legs or body and almost nothing from the car that's why I've decided to not put it in the video.
You should've kept it. 5 cars x 5 seconds is not big outlay. The car moving straight away is not important if you see it or not, it's the sound that matters.
