Rally Jordan 2010

well with this, todays stages have become much less interesting.

On the other hand as was just mentioned on rally radio, it was basically 1-day rally with the intermediate reverse starting order.. The one leading on friday won just about every time. (specially Gronholm was perfect at that).

Anyway time for some statistics:

Stage wins for Solberg:

2010 (C4) - 12 - after almost 3 rallies

2009 (Xsara)- 12
2008 (Subaru factory team) - 15
2007 (Subaru factory team) - 13
2006 (Subaru factory team) - 38
2005 (Subaru factory team) - 49
2004 (Subaru factory team) - 94
2003 (Subaru factory team) - 48
2002 (Subaru factory team) - 32

If he keeps current stage win rate he'll get something like 40 wins this season.
Sure stage wins are not what really counts, but they are kind of the best indicator of pure speed.

Then, Ford ordered Mikko to check before Latvala and give him back 1 road position late.
After that, Citroen ordered Ogier to check before Loeb, to be 1st on the road, so that's the 8 mins early check...

So Latvala probably would have won this. Where is the problem? :D

Oh I forgot. A certain Mr. Loeb going so fast in most rallies that only this way he may lose some rallies and have some competition. Why don't we just ban Loeb from the WRC?

Actually this starting order favors Loeb more than the reverse, because he's the one starting from 1st position on day one just about every time.

Some fault between gearbox and flywheel.
