    If in MC Henning's car was at the same level than the works cars, then Henning was even worst than I tought on this first rally.

    Henning needs more asfalt training. He has not done that many km SS on that black stuff.

    Henning has driven last year in Monte-Carlo too.

    Hmmm, this is a good idea, but Stobart is a tricky one.

    I don't think you can really call them privateers when they are run by the same outfit as the works team, doing all 16 rounds and running the same car.

    I do not want to start a fight here with henning fans, but his performance in Monte was extremely bad.
    No one ever had so much difference to Matthew Wilson (not even a gentlemen driver like Perez Companc when drivig the Focus 06 for first time). I rated Henning as a fast driver (not as some here who considere him one of the fastests of all), but did not performed reasonably not even in one stage.

    I guess he will show his best in sweden and specially in Norway, but Monte was much worse than anyone could expected.

    Agree, Henning were surprisingly slow. A few stages weren't that bad, but overall it was terrible.

    He has said afterwords that he is seeking someone to exchange knowledge on how to be fast on tarmac with.

    He had tested the car only once, so I guess he used MC to familiar himself with it. It was also reported yesterday that he will get one day of testing on snow before Sweden, which is very good news.

    I must say my hopes for a very good performance, especially in Sweden, are lower now. Even if it was a new car and tarmac, I am worried about his completely lack of speed.
    ...may the force be with you...

    I was watching a rally show on tv where they showed tarmac rally in Norway from last year, is that a new thing?

    I'm stunned

    Halvis, of all people how can you say all this ??

    Henning was like a dead eel in Monte but that has nothing to do with Sweden and Norway. It's basicly like Rovanperä put on tarmac and then snow. It's going to be damn sure that Henning a totally different man on snow wether he has a new car or not. read my lips, there will be no lack of speed.
