Have you heard one driver being happy with them?

narrow tyres are faster,new wide tyres are slower.
just wait some days more,to compare Mikko,Mats,Henning with same tyres...

The old large cars were faster when driven sideways. The best example of car which was "fast" only sideways was Octavia :D

And the "glass II" isn't bad eather.
Ketomaa, Ostberg, Tänak, Sordo & Sandell.

Would be great if someone could challenge Ogier in S2000.
If not, there's still lots of competition.

From what I heard, Henning will drive the GoFast Fiesta in Sweden

Thanks to the high snow banks, the regular crashers will remain longer in the top. My fav is Loeb

Nothing against Loeb, but I will cheer for Latvala, Petter or Mikko, just to make championship more interesting. If my memory serves me correctly, Loeb said there won't be team orders in Citroen this year. If there is a chance to beat Seb, Sweden is the place.

Loeb used to be an regular crasher himself on snow, unfortunately he seems to have improved...
