    Paddon has done a good job this year. Best progress, I think.

    Proper rallying because on 3 wheels? Because no rain or mud on this tarmac stage?

    Meeke driver of the rally i think. I hope and expect him to be in WRC next year.

    Got the impression from his post stage interview that Yves Matton may not agree with you. For me this season has shown how much of a shame it is that Kris had to wait so long for a proper drive, if he'd had a shot when he was younger then I think he really could have been a genuine challenger. He still has the pace as much as anyone else available to Citroen IMO but they don't have much patience with drivers that trash cars.
    You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

    Maybe. He finished the season on almost the same points as Ostberg but is faster almost everywhere. 19-0 on the stages here.

    Have to agree. He needed to be in a WRCar before he got the IRC drive; sadly there weren't any seats at the time. He could have bought a seat, but coming from Britain, there was no way of raising sponsorship - and that is still the case. This weekend has been a perfect example; virtually zero mainstream coverage that sponsors want.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    If Matton is stupid enough to ditch Meeke, Malcolm Wilson will surely give Meeke a drive at Msport. MW said earlier in the year he's getting "disheartened" turning up at rallies knowing his drivers cant even compete for wins. And Meeke is only driver that has the pace to challenge the VWs on certain events. IMO if Meeke was in the VW he would be Ogiers biggest challenger throughout the year for wins.

    Both Msport drivers dont deserve to stay on, but then again nobody else has shown they deserve to take Tanaks or Evans' place. Maybe MW will have to take a big gamble on a young gun...

    Does anyone think Citroen or Ford might take a punt on Abbring, even if just for selected rounds?
