    wide lines are not faster.Kubica drove some U turns with wide lines by accident.Plenty of other U turns without wide lines from him at Monte at videos we ve seen.

    I think Kubica is more than enough fast for the moment. He need to build consistency from now on.

    If your saying he braking later than others , then it is the others that should work on there braking and despite people saying his lines look bad , but it's the times that count not the lines and for first wrc rally in fiesta and first monte very well done . And he was first to say sorry and that he made a mistake judging the grip level to the m-sport guys so fair play !

    Your right that its only the times that count, and hes properly fast for his experience, but usually theres not much point in braking later if your missing the apex's, but he does seem to be doing it on purpose.

    Interesting observation from this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvRS9-85XJs
    Ogier brakes too late, goes wide, very wide and accelerates carefully. Hirvonen brakes early, perfect line of the corner and accelerates hard sideways. From the time of appearance of the car to the time it dissapears, it is the same time for both of them.

    I'm not saying you are wrong, but not all U turns are wide enough to allow different lines. In fact most of the U turns in Monte have only one possible line. But then again, the wide U turns are inviting for late braking, and prone to mistakes.

    What a rubbish. You have no idea what you are talking about, just go to watch any WRC rally and see what he can do with his right hand. If you suggested he drives with one hand then you have no clue about rally driving. It's not rocket science to search you tube to see how he cope and just follow his carrier, interviews, comments if you can watch rally live.

    I don't think it's rubbish. When Mirek says he can hold a cup of coffee, it's the same to grab a wheel and other things. The movement of his tendons must be very limited, or else there was no need to put the paddle shift on the left side like the Ford has.
