So the drivers work is not only driving then. With limited testing I would have never had the confidence.

Then, if you are lucky you have a car as it runs on rails. I'm glad they've banned the active diffs.

You say it all right there.

The more I read Antonys blog, the more impressed I am with Petter solberg, his work load must be huge.

I agree. I don't know where he finds the energy and mental strength to perform as well as he does with all the extra things he has to worry about. I really hope he can get back into a manufacturer team very soon.

Yeah, I agree. It just reflects poorly in the WRC as a whole - a WRChampion can't get a drive. Can you imagine the same happening in F1?

Jacques Villeneuve. None of the teams are interested even though he has tried to get drives after being dumped by BMW/Sauber.

It depends on the champion, Grönholm would have got a deal this year if he would have wanted.

Agreed. IIRC M-Sport and Petter didn't part amicably and Citroen don't really need Petter. If this were 2002 Petter would be getting paid to drive but it's not.

I wonder what happened with Petter and M sport?
VW would be ideal for Petter to get a manu drive, they want flogging if they dont take him on!
