Am i right in thinking that the roads in Sardinia usually are so soft that they don''t really clean that much?

Completly wrong...they are soft and sandy, só There is much more to clean...

I can confirm that, Sardinia is very thoug for the first. And anyway Prokop was second at a certain point in 2014 if I remember well, so it must be a disadvantage for sure

That's what i meant so being 1st or 5th doesn't really matter as it's still soft, just what remember from when i was there 2011

Monte, Sweden with some conditions, Germany (a bit), France, Spain cause of the dust and Wales are generally an advantage for the first.

Sweden with some other conditions, Mexico, Portugal, Poland, a bit Finland, Sardinia, Australia are a disadvantage.


It's almost a draw,,,and presuming it will never rain, that is almost impossible. I think this first-on-the-road issue is starting to be overrated, it counts less on second passes, and nothing on second days 'cause of rally2.

[N.O.T]

The difference in driving ability between Ogier and its "rivals" (LOL..what rivals ??) is that big that running order does not affect the final result so quit that useless discussion... yes Ogier might lose a rally or two this season because of it but in the long run it will not affect the outcome.

Loeb had no problem ridiculing and beating multiple champions like a dogs without an owners... Ogier will have no problem dealing with guys who never tasted true victory apart from some small wins... the only threat i see is mikkelsen when VW promote him to No2 driver and kick latvala and his money out of the team and hopefully out of the WRC...

Autosport started it - and possibly Ogier... Btw - small wins - which are?

some lousy event wins which most of the times were achieved because the top driver had some problems or did not eat his breakfast...

apart from Ogier right now we have some championless kids trying to become rally drivers for some time now and they FAIL... i am fed up with them...

Working late? Well, I guess WRC needs more than one driver to become WRC. But agree, much funnier if we had 10-12 Ogiers and Loebs. But - wishful thinking that is.
