Actually in 1999 there was a power stage in Tour de Corse and in Thousand Lakes rally (Finland). The official name was not Power Stage but the 3 fastest pilots in the stage scored 3, 2 and 1 points...

Lancia Stratos in Alitalia livery

I agree with you, that would be the best solution. Whoever drives a car for a manufacturer can score points for that manufacturer like the IRC (or the WRC until 1992). But I was taking in...

One way to work around it would be to go back to the rule of having three nominated drivers per team and only the best two would score points like it happened until 2003. The costs for the teams...

If you consider the rules at the time you will find that easy to accept.

In the "old times" any driver could score points for a manufacturer. That means that the pilot finishing in the highest...

If you look at Greece or Portugal rally results from the 70s and the 80s you can see that a lot of times only a few (sometimes 4 or 5) of the faster drivers finished the rally. And rallyes were very...

IMHO Armindo's car is not crap. Obviously Prodrive has the best cars but I think that Armindo, like you said, is a C level pilot. In tarmac he can be closest to some B level pilots (or at least be...

I don't know about other countries but in Portugal women buy more Minis than men do. And as a general rule we can say that women are not that much interested on motorsports. This could be one of the...

I believe I do not understand what do you mean.
I said that Citroen good result in tarmac are mainly due to the pilots expertise in tarmac and not because Citroen cars are better in tarmac. You...

It also seems to me that the performance difference betwen Ford and Citroen has more to do with the pilots than with the cars.
If Ford is able to win in Finland and Sweden it's because of the...

Yes it is a bit surprising. That's why I wrote that perhaps he improved

Let's wait for other gravel rallyes to see if he really improved and how much. Like someone said, in Portugal Loeb was out,...

During the four years in which Sordo was Citroen's Pilot (2007-2010) there was 41 non tarmac rallyes. Only in 6 of those rallyes Sordo was able to finish right after Loeb. If the difference in...

I believe it was Japan 2004.

That year Ford nominated pilots were Martin and Duval in most events. Tuohino was nominated in Sweden and Finland but he also did Wales.
So the last rally without a...
