Credit where credit is due, the Tony Pond Retrospective is an excellent read. Job well done on that one.

That was a great piece! Really enjoyed it. Tony Pond is maybe not the most known or praised drivers but from the footages I've seen he has been mighty impressive, specially in the TR7.

Well done Dirtfish!

I'm a bit worried about Dirtfish.

It's been several hours since they posted an article about Adamo.

Can someone check they are okay?

Colin Clark's stage preview/interview videos include a commercial deal with a watch company. Is that their first commercial deal outside products for rallying (brake pads, oil, etc)?

Aaaand they also have again an interview with Adamo today.

Normal service has been resumed. Now he's on their podcast.

Someone at Turdfish must have a super hard crush on Adamo... either that, or Adamo is desperate to be remembered and is giving his time and 'expertise' free of charge to them, just to stay in the public eye...

It really is becoming exceptionally tiresome.

He was a clown-show of a team principal - indicated by his firing - and the clown-show now continues despite lack of relevance....

months spent asking to have some peculiar character in the rally world and now they're running with him, it quite normal. no one else is nearly so amusing/offensive, it's good for the views...
(btw: rumors on his firing are quite the opposite bell)

I've never understood the fascination with Adamo - and I still don't. He's gone, get over it.......

Yeah, never understood the hype about Adamo personnally.

From a strictly sporting point of view, his picks were rather good: he took the only two titles of Hyundai until now; he uses quite cleverly his line-up in 2019 (Loeb was hired by Penasse-Nandan and the Loeb/Sordo compatibility was clearly not good, for the 45-year old Loeb I mean); Breen’s choice was also quite efficient; he took Tanak from Toyota and Tanak was a really high contributor to Hyundai’s title in 2020 (maybe the highest) even if Toyota outsmarts this move with Ogier and Evans.
Let’s see for Solberg’s choice which is his heritage (like Rovanpera was Makinen’s one from a young prospect point of view).

But from a technical point of view, it’s a disaster. The gap has been bigger and bigger between Toyota and Hyundai on the car and, even with this, Hyundai was far behind Ford and Toyota in terms of preparation for the new regulation.

Moncet (if confirmed in the job) lets me a better impression: less talk and more action (clearly better in Sweden than Monte-Carlo).

Whatever the DF guys reason for the fascination with Adamo, they must know the truth of why he left Hyundai.

Surely this indicates it wasn't a sacking for some bad actions and more likely he did leave/resign for a personal reason ?
