You obviously dont know him, he's a great friend and if you did not know there was a family death just before the rally in monte, do you think maybe that could have had a bad effect on him? think about it before you start yapping away
I think rallying in a WRC needs a superlicence...that way we avoid all the turists. Given his times in Pwrc and Jwrc i wouldn't expect conrad to be that bad.....same like villagra.
"Websters defines "Rautenbaching" as crashing in spectacularly moronic fashion in front of spectators" whats this all about Daniel??? you really have it in for Conrad don't you. Shame boyo , it just seems you are EXTREMELY JEALOUS!
Yes I'm jealous. I wish I could embarrass myself like he did :) i love the old "you're jealous" defence of a paydriver.
Honestly this guy is really slow. In some passages even Broccoli with a slower car was soooo better.
But I have to thank him because he gave me the possibility to see a Xsara live :) can't say nothing bad about people paying for drive (ye even Wilson), the more cars the better...
Also he can improve a lot I hope (for him) !
Anyone who goes bashing him on the forum just remember - he is a better driver than you. With the exception maybe of VERY few.
It's another car on the stages, he seems like a really nice guy, down to earth and all. It's funny how when something like this happens, all the "armchair experts" pipe up and sh!t on them.
At the end of the day we all know the "armchair experts" know a lot about the WRC although if it came time to put your cards on the table against Conrad you would look really $hit.
Nuff said.

Recently we had a guy in on a 20tonne digger, he could crack but not smash an egg with that thing, could any wrc driver do this? Is he a better driver? Certainly on a digger I'm sure but he has never drove a rally car, hense my stating of a neutral challenge. Certainly Conrad could beat me in a WRC, Matt too, but are they better drivers? I dont know and you certainly don't but if you can devise a fair way to find out I'm up for it
I'm all for freedom of expression and everyone being allowed to aire their views, but some folk make me very angry indeed. How can any supposed follower of rallying make such moronic remarks about a young and clearly talented driver who is competing in only his second rally in a world rally?
For God's give the lad a chance!!!.
If I remeber correctly, Conrad reported no brakes through the second pass of Turini, so I assume that could have been a complicating factor in his crash.
Wether it was or not, lay off the guy, and give him a chance to get used to his new car. He may not be a world beater, but he is a very talented young man and at 21, who knows how far his talent is yet to develop.
