Young talented drivers

[N.O.T]

Lack of funds is the same for every country when it comes to rallying...

did the Finnish grew a money tree during the manager era and it suddenly dried off ?

you are worried that some talents will never surface, well first of all it was always like that. Rallying is an elite rich boy sport for the most part. But your hypocritic sadness finally surfaced... i did not see any Finnish person shedding tears when those useless finnish nobodies were shoved down the throats of the teams by your managers leaving other hopefuls outside of any kind of opportunity... Where were you when that title less "legend" (LOL) Alen pushed his no good son into the FIAT team leaving scandola fighting village events ??

The tides have changed....

now its time for the rest of Europe to take a bath in your bitter tears full of hypocrisy...

I thought we were talking future. Can you please concentrate in the topic?

[N.O.T]

For your country there is no future in rallying for at least the next 5-10 years...

happy now ?

NOT i think that you should admit that because of management you could see also drivers from france taking chances that dont deserve.the big hope (lol)chardonnet,because of elena or maurin who is not something special and he is not to an appropriate age to start international career but he has the chances for international outings.what i want to say is that you will always find mediocre drivers in the international scene because of having sponsors or appropriate managers.are youa bit biased towards finnish drivers or thays my idea???

NOT´s comment is only here to make others angry. No one should listen to his crap atm.

@nafpaktos: Maurin isn't a young talent, doesn't belong in this topic at all. He never had the ambition of the named young drivers. He's a bit like we have Dennis Kuipers in the Netherlands for example (just faster than Kuipers). Father of Julien Maurin is owner of Groupe Maurin: http://www.groupe-maurin.com They own 51 official garages in the Southern part of France and sell over 20 000 cars per year. About Chardonnet I agree, there are better guys than him.

@NOT: You don't know shit.

Not really (no pun). You make an argument that I thought had no base and when asked, you can't stand behind what you've said.

I know how you act and what's your role is. I also know that you know about rallying. Sad fact is that your only input has, is and apparently will be that of a barking dog.

Tom yes i agree about what you say about maurin,i mentioned him as a driver who take chances that he doesnt deserve.yaccoo is his major sponsor,does he owns this company?

I'm not sure if Yacco is owned by him/his family. But if not, it's probably part of some business deal. Anyway Maurin proved to be fast in France, and I'm sure that on tarmac his times aren't going to be too bad. But still no doubt that his projects exist because of the people/family behind him. Did you ever complain about Prokop not deserving his chances by the way? For me it's the exact same thing...

Ok then, I rememeber it a bit different but apparently I'm not too much informed about Tempestini's story. Thanks for get facts strighter.
In any case, romanian or italian, I think he has potential, let's see.

And a great name too! Very evocative.
