This rally is going to be very interesting, expecially if it rains :)
Interesting to look at the early Pickems. Almost everyone going for a Loeb win, although one brave soul has put Latvala 1st and Loeb 2nd! A couple have put Sordo in 2nd too despite the Mini having no competition experience on tarmac which is hopeful in my opinion. Also very little confidence in Petter and JML (by all but one anyway!) which I disagree with - both showed much improved tarmac pace last season.
Really interesting to see what Ford can do with the Fiesta...
Germany is one of my favourite rallies, okay I admit, they could really try to reshape the route (nearly the same every year nowdays). Now when Ireland is not driven, it's the only "special tarmac" rally.
I hope Fiesta kicks ass, if it does, then I'm waiting a lot from JML. I'm also waiting a surprise from Sordo. Maybe he'll toss it or the car will go kaboom, but I'm expecting him to be fighting for a podium place. ;)
You're expecting a lot. I hope also for mini.
Mini!! :d
Don't dream too much about possibilities of the Fiestas vs the DS3s on tarmac :p :
Yeah, agree!! Needs a fresh look, new stages. It's become very monotonous - and sums up modern WRC era rallying. Thank goodness Finland/ Acropolis have done something different.Quote:
