I think it's fair to say that drivers like Mikkelsen or Aigner (who has lesser experience than Wilson!) have shown much more signs of potential than young Wilson.

While I appreciate the Wilson is still learning the rallies, is it not too much to expect him to put in the odd quick stage time( top 6 ). He hasn't and hasn't looked like doing so. Though I stand to be corrected and I'm not counting Superspecials. I have nothing against him and hope he does well, I'm gonna judge him at the end of this season, but so far it doesn't look good.
8th in Mexico this week-end !!! Wow!!!!
Matthew, daddy and Stobart must be celebrating that event at home in England now !! :D
So he scores a point and still gets ridiculed...
scoring a point while being 3 months behind doesn't say much....he gets what he deservesQuote:

Sure he got a point, and well done to him for that, but he was eight minutes!!!!!! behind Latvala in 7th. That is an embarrassing amount of time by anyone's standards. Are you going to even try to defend the weekend's performance?
No wonder Mark Higgins is not (driving a Stobart WRC Focus) anymore as Matt's team mate.
Ok hes not doing too flash this year, but hey what he does is up to him. I don't support the guy, but i don't put him down.
It's wonderful with all you backseat drivers claiming he is total and utter sh!t. How many threads have we run with this topic? It's boring. No one on this forum would be able to drive that car faster than him! (apart from Pentti, and he would do it in spectacular fashion). I know this is a discussion forum although discussing it once is cool. For the eighth time, reading the same slandering comments is a waste of bandwidth.
Let's find something worth talking about or has the WRC become that boring that we now need to discuss how sh!t the low ranking drivers are?

i would not be so sure on that, apart from pentti, there are a few more national drivers in the forum, i know for sure that at least two austrians are arround here, one with wrc-knowledge and one very good young upcoming driver, one of them already proofed that he is miles faster than slowson....Quote:

Yeah ok so there is always a couple of exceptions. The majority of us (which is a sh!t load) could not. THAT is my point.
The simple fact of the matter is
a: he is living his dream, so why shouldnt he?
b: if daddy or whoever is going to pay for him then that is their business.
c: MOST of US could not run any better so until we can we should stop sh!tting on him as hard as many are. (yes it is a discusison forum but this is really a nice case of bashing).
d: It is another WRC car to watch on the stages, or watch leave the road...why are we whinging?
e: I know EVERYONE on this forum would give their right arm to be in Matt's position
f: I dont support him however i don't sh!t on the dude, I certainlly don't support the bashing he gets from everyone. For ages the Brit's have whinged about not having a UK driver in the WRC, now u have one yet even though he is doing poorly you still feel the need to crap on him further...seems no one is very patriotic....
Just my 2 c.
