Well, your from The Netherlands where according to the media only two people have ever driven a car: Jos the Boss and his son ;) The rest of the world has a more balanced viewpoint of motorsports.Quote:

However the F1 page usually has several stories a week, if not daily. If I talk to people at work who don't really like cars then they will still usually have an idea of the main protagonists and the teams, they wouldn't have a clue who Sebastian Ogier was and likely still think Subaru are in the championship.Quote:

You can find few photos from Lohéac on my flickr. Nice event great battles, drivers quite accessible but prices are increasing comparing last years and too many people, you can't move like on a rally. But i liked it

Ekstrom most likely will take the championship lead after barcelona, he managed to get into the final while Solberg did not, Loeb crashed.
Once again - Ekström Swedens best overall motorsport four wheel driver ever!
Solberg seemed off the pace all weekend really.
It's far too early to call the championship though, I think that Latvia and Argentina will be happier hunting grounds for the DS3.
Yeah, he seemed really off the pace. He didn't have any explanations for it either which is either troubling, or a sign that he has a plan he doesn't want t talk about in public.
Let's hope it's the latter.
