Yesterday Malcolm Wilson told that teamorders were not necessarily, seeing the much faster pace Hirvonen had over Duval, so he could easily pass Duval on the road. Yeh, right Malcom.
So, Duval has a 3 year contract with Stobart, or with the sponsor Structo?

No, but he has outscored Loeb on points on gravel so far this year. Of course he did need Rautencrash in Jordan and tactics in Turkey :D

Ha! Colin (WRR) has just said what I said before - that Duval would be promoted to the BP Ford team for the two remaining tarmac rallies - and put JML in the Stobart for those two tarmac events. Interesting.

Good theory from World Rally Radio Colin... drops Latvala for Tarmac and replace with Duval

He can't challenge Loeb, Sordo and Duval on tarmac so it's automaticly five points away from the chase, in every tarmac rally. So, he basicly what he needs is a twenty points lead from gravel rallies :mark:

Germany is Dudu's special. I expect tight battles between Mikko and Francois in other asphalt rallies. Sordo is has tougher bone to beat. Loeb = impossible.
