I don't honestly believe Wilson is another Burns, but he is approaching his rallying the same way - by the time he is as old as Wilks, he will be quicker than Wilks is now.... I suspect there is just some frustration from people that he is in a 'works' seat because of his father, while faster drivers like Galli and Gardemeister are sitting at home watching - but this does not make him a **** driver - if he had stayed in the UK doing BRC I would not expect him to be far behind Higgins and Wilks now, and look how much more experience they have......

Hope they get the Suzuki fixed for Superrally - I want to see it in Epynt tomorrow! :(

Richard got his share slagging. I may have delivered a fair amount of it just by myself. But I have to agree with NOT. Even I cannot compare Burns and Wilson. It seem out of this world kinda thing.

If Loeb is higher than 6th, he is champ no matter what Marcus does.

How about just checking the point situation BEFORE rally GB and make a caluculation of your own, Matt ?

Ouch! Ok thanks jonkka! hey everyone enjoy the rally, off to work for an hour then to sleepp, best of luck to gronholm. :)

how about its a simple question and its 12am here and i'm going to work... hrmmm let me see, i don't want to check everything right now. :p

Accident with late running crew on SS1 has injured two spectators - hopefully not seriously. Stage start for SS5 will also be delayed 10 mins.

Glad my views on Wilson have given everyone a good laugh! :D For my next trick I will attempt the impossible and suggest that Subaru can win a rally with that p.o.s. that Petter and Atko are dragging around......
