I think that it has to do too with the car also, i liked those fords but now i think that it has to be a lot more "fun" to drive a c4, but only a dirver could tell us if its right or wrong, lets ask Gigi and Petter....

(Well... that doesn´t mean I will dislike Finland because you don´t like Sweden. Even thou you guys in Suomi think all swedish men are fags...
some of us like the way Finland take on things in the community)

Now back to the thread - how about Petters mental or physical condition? It seems he doesn´t have power to manage the whole stages looking at his split times. :confused:

Tomorrow Mikko has nothing to loose, I hope he goes totaly FLAT OUT so put some pressure on Seb.
I´d rather see him chrashing out trying than going for second place hoping for a mistake from Seb

Yeah, honestly I don't understand Mikko in this situation neither.
Why doesn't he want to drive flat out, 50% over the limit?
- If he keeps his 2nd place, he won't take the title anyway.
- Waiting for Loeb to retire? But if this happens, it will happen regardless to what position Mikko is holding!
- In this situation it's no difference for Mikko whether he finishes 2nd or retires - Loeb will take the title. So Mikko should try!!! At least it's the only thing left to do!

Tomorrow there will be 80km without service and Mikko´s favorite stages. We can expect that Loeb takes two spare tires and some tools and parts more, so most probably his car will be heavier and therefore slower. Mikko should go to the stages with one spare and almost without any tools and spares and take risk that he might get two punctures or something else might happen. So, 7.6 sek on each stage or tomorrow and we will have very interesting final :-)
Just a interesting fact. In 2007 in similar conditions Mikko was over 51 sek faster than Loeb on the same stages :-)
