I'm aware of that. But the number plate (at least in this case) gives away the driver and I wanted to find out which chassis he will be using in Poland. That's why I took that toad.Quote:

The thing that worries me the most is heavy rain on thursday late evning.
SS surface won't bear two passes if it will be wet. Just like last year Baranowo stage and both lithuanian stages in 2014.
I have a funny feeling Andreas will do really good this weekend
Hopefully we won't see too many cancellations and further route changes. The stages are going to get torn to bits. Really excited for the rally. Really a sense of excitement ahead of all the events this year - which hasn't been the case for a while.
Would be an amazing transformation after two days of testing. I think he was sand bagging a little in Sardegna. This way everyone wins.. he looks good and the team looks good. The clueless bean counters high up are happyQuote:

But he has made great results in Poland for last three years, whereas he hasn't in Sardinia. I'm expecting him to do better. The only question mark is the newly homologated parts of the car.Quote:

every year the same problem, i will be surprised if this rally is on calendar next year...FIA have forgiven them many times already.
My prediction also. This is probably the last time we see Poland in WRC calendar.Quote:

What's wrong with Polish rally "fans"? Are they trying to ruin everything on purpose? Idiots...
They are from different cultural sphere - eastern european style! Unfortunately so, same applies for a lot of my compatriots...Quote:

I don't know whats wrong with them, but I think rally specifics cause spectator safety issues - stages are mainly in open fields, there is lack of natural obstacles - rocks, water, swamps and other which prevent spectators from being near road as close as possible or let them spectate from rocks near road, or from hill to see long distance of stage. Maybe there is another causes related with behavior, but landscape isn't very friendly to spectate also + very fast stages, and result is what it is..
...same here..Quote:

Beside it Poland are very unfriendly in terms to hold fans back from track - mighty open field areas without trees or forest which could serve as some natural barrier.Quote:
