What could have been: When a rally king's Le Mans debut was scuppered
Carlos Sainz is a name synonymous with rallying, the Spaniard etching his name into the history books as a double World Rally champion and currently gunning for a fourth Dakar win with Audi. Had it not been for a date change, he may well have added a further bit of history to his credit at the Le Mans 24 Hours...

Even if a bit belated, Happy New (Rally) Year's everyone!
It's only Day 1 of Dakar, but surprisingly WRC drivers occupy the first three places; namely Al-Attiyah, Loeb and Prokop! Sadly, Carlos got lost and is currently 37th. https://live.worldrallyraidchampions...-1/asod/ukie/m
Edit: In the Prototype Class last minute substitute Dakar rookie Mikkelsen has been praised for .. surviving the first day and not running last!
We have a thread for Dakar ;)

Would be nice to get drivers that drove multiple 2017reg cars do a comparison of how they were to drive compared with each other:
Candidates to ask during an interview:
Ogier - Polo, Fiesta, C3, Yaris (didn't drive i20)
Mikkelsen - Polo, Fiesta (tests on both surf.), C3, i20 ( no Yaris)
Tanak - Fiesta, Yaris, i20 ( no C3 and Polo)
Is there an actual "rally sprint" championshop with R5s? Or maybe "what is the biggest one" out there?
