I'll try to dig into it... Although it wasn't yesterday so I can't make any promises.

Also you are being utterly retarded and reading into other people's posts as usual... I said that compared to actually having a sorted chassis and suspension, aero isn't that important, not that it was totally unimportant.

... But then again you the special needs person in this forum so I don't suppose I should expect more from you.

please dig it up and show us and also make the manufacturers aware because they spend money on useless things.

N.O.T is just a perfect example of the Dunning-Kruger effect in action.

I totally agree with that.

I'd say text book example of schizophrenia in action...

But would one of the top drivers go to M-Sport even if they paid them well, since they lost Ford official support ? I doubt it.

Wilson is doing what is right for them considering their position. And how many other private WRC teams are there if its so easy...

And you decent rally fans... enjoy the forum and just use the Ignore List.

I'll give you two of those, but Latvala is hardly paying for his VW seat (and didn't pay for his Ford seat either, although no idea how much he was paid).

Ostberg wasn't paying for his Citroen seat either, although again I'm not sure if he was paid. He might not have progressed but he was an exciting young talent at some point.

Unless you mean their parents helped get them into the sport, which is the same for every top level driver out there since Bernd Rosemeyer....

Because other private teams would have to antagonise the manufacturers car, M-sport does not have a direct comparison with a manufacturer.

Basic. wow...
