Another error or 'issue' for Breen, another slow time for Mikkelsen. Patience must be running out with these two.

Breen seems to have reached his limit. when he pushes that bit extra, he makes mistakes.

Mikkelsen getting beat by 3 R5 cars is embarrassing I'm afraid.

Well, he isn't exactly slow driver. Kajto is slow with same tyres.

Well, actually, Richard Burns was quite fast with it (referring to Mitsubishi).

As was Eriksson. But it's strange indeed how both Loix and Gardemeister (who were considered as really fast drivers before joining Mitsubishi) tarnished their reputation with that Evo VI.

Mäkinen and Subaru wasn't that bad in my opinion. Think it was more Tommi being past his prime than anything else.

But ok, back to Catalunya...

I agree about the not bad at all -part. But I am not at all sure that Tommi was past his prime but suddenly there were more competition in terms of good drivers and cars. In 1996 just three different drivers split all the wins between them, in 1999 there already were six different winners and in 2001 whopping eight. Same is evident in manufacturers, which is even more important as not every team is able to field a winning car (and winning driver with it).
