Rallye Monte Carlo 2015

That guy Evans must have some sort of parfum on his ass or a lot of money.

The guy has no charisma at all and is invisible in almost every rally! Why him and not bouffier for a full year?

you complain that Kubica doesn't have M-Sport specs for his car and then you say that about Evans, who outperformed Kubica in almost every rally last year?

Because he is the new project of Malcolm Wilson. I doubt he brings lot of money and don't agree that hasn't charisma at all. Actually he makes remarkable comments BTW he is much better on asphalt, which is Bouffier's speciality, if we can call it that way.

Forecast (very first ang general).

General weather picture tells that there is some snow already and some more is expected (Monday night and Wednesday night). During the rally, there should not be much additional snowfall (exept shakedown) but I guess that all the stages until Sunday will be full of snow and ice (at least 90% of their distance) because the temperature does not rise above zero much. Powerstage is so low and so close to the sea that i do not expect any snow there, Turini stage should be also half without snow and maybe less than half snow covered. So, be prepared, not much wind, but will be quite normal that there is -10 degrees in the morning :-)

Teams were testing in very wet snow, I think they should have been consentraing more on ice and powder kind of snow.


I will tell more when the time is closer

don't be so sure when you do not know a lot.

Hahahaha your funny! I probably know and forgot more about this sport than you will ever know!!

I don't just work for M-Sport, follow the sport with a real passion and desire and give up nearly 40 weekends a year to compete/officiate on events for a reason!!! Now go hide back under your little rock and play with your dolls!

Elfyn has grown as a person in the past year, really come out of his shell and realised his potential. He is a very humble and down to earth lad who knows he can't just expect everything to be given to him on a plate. He spends a lot of time at M-Sport with his engineers.

Elfyn is very potental young guy. By the way, if his father won't bring a lot of money, someone could say that he's invisible.

That's why I don't understand how people could compare Evans with Bouffier. Bouffier has lack of experience in a WRC events. He made only 6 rounds in a 4WD car. Someone said that Bouffier is older, but who cares? Some people in the past were saying something similar about Marcus Gronholm at begining of 1999.

then act like you know all this stuff and not like some nobody old man with no accomplishments in life...

both Loeb and Ogier did take the sport by a storm really early... you can always advise the nobodys resource webpage wikipedia to confrim.

Bouffier in WRC would have been good in 2013, since then he never got his speed back to this level

We have didn't see the real potential of Bouffier in 2014. He drive in the Hyundai in the testing modus. Maybe he get some more miles by M-spot, so we see more of him en can better judge him.
