If the tyres have been working well (for their standards), it is thanks to Tanak. I'm quite sure it could be much worse.
he has done well indeed.. In Sardegna, there were images with completely destroyedDMack tyres. Now, seems that he has found fine line.. we have seen Jari Matti with completely destroyed Michelins but nothing bad from Dmack.. pure marketing
Then sorry! It is actually a really interesting topic to discuss about, what would someone choose to do to improve WRC.
From Ben, I was expecting to improve the sport, attract new manufacturers...
Yes I was serious and was in hope of a serious conversation around possibilities, expectations, limits and magic wands. Maybe you saw that as me defending him. Never mind.
Are you serious? He has given so many promises over the years to make this sport better. Everybody had some hopes as he has rally background etc and maybe knows stuff. But yeah... it’s a running joke...
Facepalm inducing... and even if we remove the points he got with Rally1 in Estonia, he would still be ahead of the best placed Puma. No excuse for Munster and McErlean to be behind a WRC2 driver.
