They removed it from Facebook now though, maybe the promotor didn't like the promoting...

And now RBMH propose their version of shootout... this is getting more and more silly

That's just ridiculous...Quote:

Gundersen method must be mentioned :-)
How on Earth can we rally fans make this not happen?
Did they happen to watch the past weekend? Rally Finland didn't need any gimmicks. Just a battle between drivers going to the final stage. There is nothing essentially wrong with the format of WRC events; they just need their own signature, rather than 10-13 identikit events.
What does need improving is the Promotion by RBMH..... It's still average.
Well as long as the stakeholders are happy, then who cares about the fans eh?!Quote:

Maybe so, but you need the fans that have watched through the decline to still be watching to make some money ;)Quote:

HE. HAS. NO. IDEA.
"Ciesla admitted the original discussions had brought confusion and disharmony, but said he was happy with what has emerged."
OK so you don't like that idea, what if we made it worse still would that help?
I hope Jean Todt as a possionate WRC fan, having been a former competitor, steps in to get rid of these half-whits that clearly don't know what they're doing and have some vendetta against the very sport they're "promoting".
Todt, during his time in office, has done nothing about anything. I don't expect this to change.Quote:

Interesting article here about WRC Promoter and what seems to be remarkable harmony and acceptance of their work by 'stakeholders'.
Thierry Neuville will start in our East Belgian Rally with the i20 WRC!

No Mikkelsen on entry list, thats weird...
Been hearing rumours that next years cars will be allowed a maximum power output of 400bhp.
I don't see that happen... How will you check "400bhp"? What I could believe in is that FIA allows a bigger restrictor size (let's say 1-2mm bigger). :) The question is if all currently homologated parts can keep up with the extra power/torque it could generate.Quote:

What about Tidemand? Should be good choice as well comparing to tanak.Quote:

It is time of Sweden have a top driver again :) Could be Tidemand?
Btw, Sweden World Rally Team project are over?
