edit
It appears that Delecour shares the phonecalls from his friends with the team :) Ford 1,2,3,4 at this stage
Looks like Ford had good tyres for first today stage, next stages will be very interesting.Quote:

If Solberg can keep 2nd place, it would be a good start to his championship.
Petters first SS win with the Fiesta! Congrats!
So, for the nerds out there: When did Solberg last time have the fastest SS in a Ford?
Advantage to Tanak in his fight with Campana, Araujo quicker than Hirvonen (just shouldn't happen to someone with Champ pretentions) and now Mikko really has a tussle with Novikov on his hands, couldn't be more pleased for Denis - a true sportsman and a very nice person. Is it too much to hope the Petter can take anothe chunk out of Loeb's lead!Quote:

Tire choice for SS12
Leb 4 studded tiers
Hirvo - the same
Sordo - winter w/o studs
Novikov - diagonal cross with supersoft and studs
Oh yes, the Monte has just started.
Usually when Loeb loses 20 secs in first stage, he wins one minute on the next one.
It was in this stage that Bouffier and Delecour had tipped up Monte Carlo 2011
World Rally Radio are the best! My Birthday present indeed!
They were talking about you wasn't it?!Quote:

French Empire Strikes Back - part 5028.
57 seconds behind Sordo now....
Hirvonen fastest !!!
Solberg lost second place, it's Monte but i think will be difficult for Peter, Mini have good strategy with tyres. Respect for Hirvo :)
I think I'm the only one who hates Monte Carlo Rally. Too many tactics. I prefer the simple rounds. Just driving as fast as you can.
you should start gambling. :DQuote:

Ford sent the crew with this combination of tyres at these conditions?
Blame Loeb for not interesting championship! :D
From the start of the rally its the first stage that Mikko is front Loeb that good for his confidence :)
Is the points system the same as last year?
Finally somebody understants what he seeQuote:

No, you´re not. MC back to the backyards and IRC. No place for gambling in WRC. I want plain driving against the clock without hazards like tyrechoices.Quote:

Wilson has shown up as 11th overall but he will be pushed down to 13th when the leading 2 S2000 come through
But that's what the Monte is about - didn't you watch last year? Hanninen was the fastest driver, but made a bad tyre choice, and it cost him. Bouffier made the right choice and won the event.Quote:
