Rally Italia Sardegna '16

[Rallyper]

I for a change think that it doesn't matter at all if Camilli, Latvala or whoever can drive Escort gr.4 if they can drive the car they actually use. And no, I don't think it's so easy

However you didn´t understand the essence of what dear Mr VanLandingham tried to tell you. It´s big difference between drivers and drivers, at least in our old fart minds.

What? Anybody got a confirmation for this?

It's official now, common sense prevailed thankfully.

Really? For me this rule should be ok. Especially now, when splits are forbidden, it should be working...

Nah... I am pretty sure they would manage to approximate their pace also without working splits in the car. We'd be back in the same dump again.

...I mean, a professional rally driver who job it is to judge his pace relative to the others should be able to estimate how much to stop to have a favorable position.

I have doubts for this too. Mikkelsen on today's PS was slow enough.

50 000€? O_O

...for some bloody windows?
Has rolex released a spring collection of watches and the heads of the FIA decided they wanted some of that cake? ...the hell?

I know quite a lot of drivers who are fast with these old cars but never managed to be fast with the new cars even if they tried. What does it mean then? Are they bad drivers when they can't do something so easy? Or is that point completely irrelevant?

That he cant drive competetively an ford escort i can take it as a joke.

Probably he is referring to French FWD invention connection. You know RWD and FWD are completely different philosophies in Rally driving. Driving 4WD must combine them in the best way and seems French drivers recently are well ahead at this.
