    It's very hard to compare Evans with anyone when he is the only car with different tyres (well Østberg had same in Portugal).

    Depending on your angle every time he does good it has to be a tyre advantage (Monte tarmac stages, Argentina, Poland SSS 3x...) or every time he does bad it's not his fault cause he has bad tires.

    However, I do like what Ogier said in Argentina: tyres can give you an advantage but you still need to be able to use it and drive at that speed.

    Asier from his tyres, Evans' inconsistency has always baffled me. I love the guy, but on one event he's challenging for the win and on the next he's barely in the top 8. It's always been that way too.

    Wow. Didn't Floene leave Mikkelsen because Ostberg was able to provide more long term assurances?

    Hmm.....

    Does he have a career? I am not really sure what he does, who pays for him? Is it family?

    Isn't it banned in France? Yet they sponsor Ogier.

    It's been available for quite a few years now.



    As for Mads - looks like Torstein will stay will Fredrik Ahlin for the remaining BRC rounds. They have a great shot to win that championship. Germany clashes with Ulster - so seems that Patrik Barth will be co-driving for Mads in Germany. Less pressure with the R5 car.
