Someone mentioned Østberg, and he might be one to call. He was very quick in the Fiesta while fighting in the top in Germany, and want experience in S2000.

There were no real asphalt specialists in Germany while Sanremo will be full of them. They need someone who is extremely good on asphalt and in best have large experience with Sanremo (and also with BFG tyres). It's an event where You needs precise almost circuit lines and just very aggressive style which can work on some events is not enough. Don't think Ostberg can do anything remarkable there.
So who should that be, who is the best available ?Quote:

Six or seven years ago Panizzi was paid with six zeros and this days it's you who must pay to drive.. Rich sons destroyed rally sport..
I don't think you can put some one to shame if you crash out and they don't...Quote:

Maybe not, but Cronin beat McShea by up to 1s/km if I remember correctly. That's quite a crushing bearing in mind they are in the same car.Quote:

Maybe I am remembering incorrectly: It was a driver a couple of years ago that said that he would not drive anymore if he did not get paid, he did not want to risk his life for nothing. Just getting sponsormoney enough to pay the team to get a car was not good enough.
Was this Panizzi or was it someone else ?
Panizzi and Duval I think.Quote:
