    That's very "local italian"

    I don't really care about this Östberg outburst. I found it funny and was not offended by it. Why should I as a spectator be offended? He didn't say anything about me.

    I don't recall now, has he been swearing in stage-end interviews before? There are a few drivers out there who just casually drop s- and f-bombs here and there, with no reason whatsover. I don't mind drivers boiling over if they're frustrated to the max, but needless swearing makes them look like undereducated coal miners having a pint in a pub.

    After the finish, before the podium, winner Ogier, said something along the lines "I thought I would have a shit rally again". I was personally more bothered by that. Just needless and making him look less solid.

    I heard it as "bangs" - you get more backfiring when the anti-lag is active due to excess fuel getting into the exhaust. You don't have this in "road mode".

    As this year (imho) wasn't the most interesting rally (no offense), it's nice to see the organisers on their toes making it different from year to year.
    Only you know your true potential.
    This year we rally #ForCraig

    I think the bang is the right word.sorry for that it's the Greensmith not the formaux.
    As the Mikemilan said the two different is the engine calibration and the center deep maps???

    Sorry to bring up old thread, but i feel its a bit early to create one for 2022....

    Anyone know where the rally will be based this year? This page (https://www.carrentalinsardinia.com/...-sardinia-wrc/) claims it will be in Alghero, but it doesn't seem very reliable...

    Have they always been alternating between Alghero and Olbia - year after year?

    EDIT: and on wrc.com it says Olbia (https://www.wrc.com/en/championship/...egna/overview/) - but that is not very reliable either

    Alghero next year, they have planned to rotate the center every year. Before last year it was in Alghero for 5-6 years.
