Hmm, that logo.
Not surprisingly Kubica is leading after SS3 with 16.3 sec. ahead of Cresci
Despite flat tyre and brake problems as a result of this, Kubica won with a ''comfort'' margin over Felice Re(another victory for I.R.C.!!) and Corrado Fontana.
The most impressive result achived by Kubica was on 7th stage-stage's lenght 23, km and he was 42 seconds faster than the second F.Re.....that is almost 2sec/km...same category 1,6 l WRC....I'm speechless...
Yes, what an easy win for Kubica. Despite flat tyre and brake problems he was almost 3 minutes faster than Felice Re. I personally don't understand it. Kubica is not an exceptionally good driver, why are those IRC "stars" so slow?

Some nice photos from the good old Massimo Bettiol. His photos are not as exceptionally good as they used to be in the past, but still worth watching:

Overall he may not be exceptionally good rally driver, but on asphalt he is exceptionally quick and he has proven that multiple times. Don't really understand your confussion.Quote:

Maybe that's because he didnt participate in any? Wait till germany, france and spain. He will win at least one of them. Mark my words. Last year in spain on some stages he was under 0,6 sek/sek slower then best wrc car on rrc ds3.Quote:
