Sorry Tolis i was away of my computer and didn t see your question.


Impressive so far is Neuville and Loix for a one off in the ''new'' skoda.
I was expecting more from Snijers and Mikkelsen.Ok he is on hankook but don t think they are 2 sec/km slower than Bf.If they are so slow he is not going to show something good also on next asphalt rallies.
Proton has spent money to drivers,but not enough money for development?Something not going well there.
Burcu is totaly lost.Pitty that there are other turkish drivers that could do a lot better.
Also impessive is Meeke for being fast in every surface/rally.
Kopecky must be the driver with most progress this year.

Lets hope to see a good battle morow till the last stage. :)

Proton need to pay up, MEM need recourses to develop the nice car further, or they have to insource a good tuning firm to help them, but Proton need to see the potential they have here !

I think the day for Mikkelsen has gone as planned. Start the rally well inside the limits, and get to know the car and tyres.

Maybe he will try to push a bit harder tomorrow. Hankook seems to function very well, but he is saying on his page that they will have a new improved asphalt tyre for the next rally.

Hankook means business with this relationship, and this quick interactive development process must be fun to be a part of !

Totaly agree with u Sulland.
Proton need to payup, they have potential.
