Talking of levels of professionalism, remember when the Teams each had spotter helicopters in the Group B days. The costs were crazy and the modern teams do it on the cheap in comparison.

Very disappointing results from MFR at Rally di Roma Capitale. Not only poor stage results, but after each loop they came back in service with very bad looking tyres. On top of that, only 1 out of 5...
