Meeke is a joke...
What difference would that make?! Im sure many of the same people would be involved.Quote:

Really shame for Breen. Meeke, well no vids yet so we dunno what happened, but clearly 3rth rally in the row with crash on first day is kinda telling. I mean IF the car is hard to drive, would it be so much of a problem to drive just a bit slower and not crash all the time. (he crashed again from 1st place)
While I didn't believe Mikkelsen would be top-runner immediately this is clearly slower than just about everyone expected. First split on first stage was on par with Meek and most others, from then on it went down. I have no doubt he is fast (just yesterday he beat the other 2 Citroen drivers in his first stage with the car). But 1 day of testing in France and running with Lefvfebre's setup obviously wasn't enough.
How he improves and loss/km is something to watch for. Not sure if I would be more happy if he lead after 3 stages like Meeke and then rolled.
That's the only positive note there, not fair towards Craig, showing good speed & consistency considering his experience, should get into a Fiesta or something.Quote:

It's been interesting now at many rallies in a row. Many stage winners, many rally leaders, and none of them is Ogier. I like this.Quote:
