Yes, that is what I was replying to, Sordo in a Ford Fiesta, and I hear that it is not a done deal.

Your judgement is as always spot on, N.O.T! Based on an amateur video, shot from long distance and out of focus, from a wet gokart track. Yes certainly, the Fiesta is painfully slow...Everybody can se that!

thats why i used the verb "look" .... compare it with the footage with the rest and please make a judgement yourself....as i said i hope that the car posts good times on the stages, but right now it LOOKS more like an s2000.

Oh come on. Lets be honest, compared to the test videos of the DS3, the Fiesta looks slower.

Video distorts reality so much...

I'm going to quote this piece of text after Rally Sweden next year when JML has won it and Fiesta has kicked Citroen's ass. ;)

I'm good at this, I can still remember when people were uncertain and doubting about Mikko winning in Monte Carlo this year. I was so sure about it and quite honestly didn't see any other scenario happening, he's still one of the best in the world compared to some of the IRC regulars. And what happened... :) Post #13: http://www.motorsportforums.com/foru...d.php?t=136045

Mikko won, 2nd lost nearly two minutes, 3rd over three minutes and 5th was almost nine minutes behind. I can still remember the grin on my face after the rally. :cool:

You forgot one thing - Ogier was helluva faster than MH on that rally. Only one silly mistake prevented him being on top before his retirement. Ofcourse there are lot's of IF's, but Ogier was the man of the rally back then, not Mikko :)
