Funny that this pressure has not affected Matt W in relation to his father. I also pity Bruno Senna for kind of the same reason.

Who didn`t see, here You can see now Video update with Toni Gardemeister tests and where he tells about his plans. Tests take place on snow and ice!

Interesting Brother John, that you're happy to allow cowardly attacks, by members hiding behind nom de plumes, on the movers and do-ers in our sport, who are defenseless against them, yet you will not allow those cowards to be challenged by fellow members. It's an interesting moral code you live by.

I suggest you show such individuals a tad more in the way of blind respect than they deserve, personally.

However I wouldn't shed tears if the championship narrowed it's geographic focus. An all Europe WRC is fine as long as in doing so the manufacturers open up more opportunities for top competitors.
In reality the WRC has never taken a foothold in Asia and, in terms of local usefulness, both RNZ and Rally Australia have had their day. There is now such a disconnect between these events and their local scenes & competitors that not only do they not add value but they are actually a burden to the regional sport.

Does not all of this constitute an attack on those holding views that don't agree with yours, and all under a 'nom de plume'?
