    Yeah, there`s a lot of room to do donuts on a forest stage, in the ruts. Really safe also for spectators, who can get hit with a potato sized or even bigger stones (which is more probable in this case).

    I'M SORRY TO INFORM YOU ALL - NO WRC DEAL FOR ME IN 2019
    As you all probably know by now Citroën Racing has decided to run only two cars in the next years championship. With no 3rd car, my last option for a WRC contract disappeared. I’m really sorry and disappointed right now. I felt at home with the team and happy with the way we were moving forward as a team. Thank you to all the good people at Citroën Racing for the 2018 season that started with one rally but ended up driving 8. It was great while it lasted. Now its time to buckle up and fight back. I’ve done it before and I can do it again! I’m open for different possibilities, but WRC is of course where my heart lies. Now it’s time to get back to the “drawing board” finding a way to fight my way back. I’m not done being a rally driver. Actually I feel like I’ve never been better. So if you got a car and a team, look me up. Any suggestions? #fightingviking
    On Twitter he answered twice that yes he'd consider WRC2.

    Sounds like M-Sport isnt an option.

    So does that mean Craig will be in that Fiesta WRC next year?

    It actually crossed my mind, but won't work because it will mean widening the road in places, as some of the chicanes are used in specific places to slow before a corner. If there is not enough space it will cost a fortune to build extra width in the road.

    And mainly (my opinion only) but doughnuts are ridiculous in any type or motorsport... they've got nothing at all to do with competitive motorsport.

    Best bet is a specific length of slow zone, within a longer zone, then the crews won't all have to brake at exactly the same point (something else that will no doubt be contentious). It could mean a 50m section, taken at 25kph, anywhere within a 200m zone. It's up to the crews if they scrub off all the speed at the start, at the end, or in the middle.

    You need to re-read it pal.
    I'm not your 'pal'. I'm a little more selective than that.

    CC calls them a nightmare on today's Facebook post.

    That's been my prediction for a while but it will always rely on finance and sponsorship.

    I've been a Breen fan since about 2010 and he's always been able to get a drive in one way or another - either with family money or some factory deal has been obtained. I'd bet on this to continue.

    He doesn’t call tractors a nightmare. He calls moveable chicanes a nightmare.
    Like I said, you need to re-read it.
    I said I had an issue with him advocating tractors as chicanes. I think it’s stupid. I didn’t say anything about moving tractors, just tractors. You get it now?

    This is the Facebook post you are referring to:

    I’m with Iain Campbell on this one. There are only really two options here. If chicanes are absolutely necessary, and I’m not sure they are, but if they are, then they have to be solid or virtual. Concrete, tractors, whatever, but moveable chicanes are a nightmare! So if we have to have them, it has to be solid or virtual!
