    If there had been more stages, we still might not have got much more stage kilometres as more stages could have been cancelled. If the stages would have been splitted into halves maybe neither half could have been run.

    Having 3 stages a day means obviously a bit less to follow, but for tv (if someone outside France bothered to show it) it's better as they don't take quite as much time. Also, variety is nice, so I think it's good to have an event with only long stages.

    Definitely some interesting stories with Kubica and a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes we don't know about.

    It seemed like he took the decision to move away from M-Sport to his own team. Not sure how much M-Sport support they actually get? But I certainly don't buy that conspiracy theory regarding pace.

    His car got sent all the way to Argentina but he didn't start that rally and said he was restructuring his team. Maybe it's a case of you get what you pay for? Not sure - but for sure all this inconsistency really cannot help on top of what is already a steep learning curve.

    Doesn't that make it worse? Accidentally/mistakenly changed the set-up? Of course Robert may have asked for certain changes and they were not carried out. Whatever happened, he's in joint P1 so we'll see how he goes on SS3.

    Simmi, perhaps I was jumping (or skydiving lol) to conclusions...

    You are just not right. You are wrong in all of the points mentioned. :-)
    Visit South Moravia. It is the real paradise

    Obviously he doesn't want to tell the details.
