    Sorry for offtopic but I have a question...

    Did a WRC2014 spec car have an ABS? (I know that modern WRC have, old one(C4,Xsara) - no)
    a) If yes - how explain 4 wheels lock-up for Mikkelsen in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eytDhBFtJ0 ?
    b) if no - how explain characteristic sound from ABS 1:34 from this video http://youtu.be/g9rzJkbQCtU?t=1m34s ?

    ABS in WRCs? I heavily doubt that... Almost 100% can say that no ABS in them. IMHO the sound at 1:34 comes always in unusually tight brakings when the engine is in danger to suffocate...

    Wrong line and he tried to correct I think
    I think a driving style. He too much wobble a car (finding grip limit?) and at right corner he find him. Why not drive smooth?
    Evans with scared eyes drive more smoothly than Kubica

    No electronic ABS for sure. The sound from Citroen is probably from the diff, he had some problems with it.

    Hm , I ask myself few years ago this question and found in internet that 97'-10' WRC doesn't have and 11'- cars have it. But now look to FIA reg. and...
    Any electronic driving aid system is prohibited (ABS / ASR /
    is prohibited (ABS / ASR / EPS...)

    Poor Kubica & his fans. BTW looks a lot like MC exit.

    this noise is from drivetrain when blocking the wheels with brakes with some gear engaged.
    No abs at wrc cars,impossible to brake at loose surfaces and bumpy roads(gravel/mud/snow/wet tarmac etc)
