Collecting those values, Tania Carton, co-driver for Campedelli, has birthday today and it is 50! Happy birthday! I think there are not too many ladies to spend their 50th birthday as co-driver :)
* Youngest driver: Virves 22
* Average driver age ~28
* Youngest co-driver: Escartefigue 23
* Average co-driver age ~40
* Youngest team (combined age): Franceschi 24 / Escartefigue 23 = 47
* Oldest team (combined age): Paddon 36 / Kennard 64 = 100
Yes, i think so too, after what i read about it.Quote:

Virves lost 1 place due the misfire in the engine. 5th overall is still good, but the end emotion does not smell good from the rally for some time.
Epic job by Sesks again. Congrats!
He makes spectating a bit boring... :) I hope he will give nice battle for Paddon for the rest of the season, otherwise it's too boring "managing" for the title as Paddon has really smart season so far - 2nd place is worst place out of 4 rallies.
Till next time.
Sesks has shown great pace on the super-fast gravel events, but not elsewhere.
Sadly I dont see him being able to challenge Paddon for the ERC Title.
He was fast also in Por, till puncture ruined it all. In Canaries he was driving not beeing well, plus seems MRF have much better gravel tires than tarmac.Quote:

But in general, i think Sesks has demonstrated that even young guys can have very matured and cool head in combo with staggering speed. Isn't it what makes it as a good foundation for good carrier?
I agree! Congratulations to Martins Sesks! It is his third win in ERC, if I remember correctly. His "radio silence" mode worked very well! :)

The crew, 16 years young man and 25 years young lady, need to gain some weight now... or pick some extra weight to car

Sad mistake, ruined opportunity to deliver some nice result.
It is new rule since last year. And it is helfpul for everybody. It was never that all drivers were choosing starting positions. Before it was usually top 15, which was not working everywhere as some drivers were using tactics and slowing down/retiring in QS to start as late as possible. So with this new rule, this tactics is not helpful anymore.Quote:
