“Okay Mikko had his difficulties but I am confident for the Championship and for Sweden I am sure he will fight for victory. Mikko did his job. It was difficult for him in these conditions, but he managed them,” he added.

May I ask what's the amount of footage and the turn around time?

Yeah, tape is awful. Capturing is a nightmare with a lot of tapes.

yes i am :)
i don't know the exact number but i can say a lot of hours per race, even without onboards. (because turkish dirvers are pretty shy about their onboards, i don't know why) you can ask via facebook page, about how many hours of video per rally. there is also a youtube channel: youtube.com/rallivideocom

I think the programs were good and a lot better than last year. Keep in mind that there were not really long days at the Monte, if you have to present a show of 30 minutes with just 3 stages that day it is likely to include not too much action. The time needs to be 'filled.'

best video by far! lol at the end!

What do you think about Prokop's performance?

I'd definately put some of it to DMack. Of course just my personal speculation. If they do not have good enough R&D to provide top gravel tyre I can't understand why would they have even that good special type one.

I think he was struggling the whole Rally with lack of grip. But finishing in the points is not bad at all.

vkangas while tyres seems to be round and black,is impossible for a new player to be even near in terms of speed with old players(Michelin-Pirelli)
example...Michelin currently working with Citroen Racing,M-sport,Vw motorsport with Loeb ,Ogier,Sordo,Latvala,Hirvonnen.
Dmack renting Ketooma,Prokop,for some rallies here and there is not going to be near NEVER.
Simply Michelin is much more faster tyre and will evolute faster and faster cause of plenty of teams with best drivers and data from every single wrc rally.Data that Dmack will not see at 10 years.

You just said what I thought but did not have energy to write it :) . Any clue what the difference really is?
