yes its a shark pond.
there is no way back i fear.
only for NZ hyundai backing i dont even think he would have any programme next yr

SAT 10:00 - SS11: PADDON
"I think it's time to forget about the result and the stage times here and try and get a good feeling for the car. If I look at the timing board I get disappointed. I've got to just try and enjoy it."

I'm following his stage end comment lately and he always sounds like a beaten man. I'm very sorry for him because it should be a very difficult moment for him as a driver. Going from an Ogier-beater and possible new world champion to pronely crashing and not showing speed anymore should be hard. Also the crash in Montecarlo didn't help.
I hope he will put things together but it will be difficult with half a program next year...

Well, tbh, i wouldn't count NORF and Poland mistakes made under pressure, especially the first one, although winning in Poland was a must and 2. wasn't an option. Without that need a solid 2. Would have been achieved.

In NORF Tanak got self-induced puncure from first place while his gap was reducing. In Poland well it was his choice to push on instead of settling for 2nd afaik. Ogier would have probably settled for 2nd which is why he is WDC this year.

Again this is not really criticism, just pointing out that a few mistakes per year are normal to all drivers, only Ogier stands out positively. Breen partly as well but he's not really fighting for wins.

"Everyone" went off on the Mikkelsen corner according to Neuville, so much BS on this forum it's incredible.

I feel like im back at school.. ive learnt what obtuse is today..

Wow you actually admit you dont know it all.

But if you are going to talk to people like you do, then some of us arent going to put up with it .

Sorry to the rest of you.

in NOT's absense, i think i provide some diversion from the daily grind...

Gutted for Andreas. Would have been awesome to get that eighth winner this year. His speed is undoubted and next year he'll be right up there I think.


Fair play some absolute sh*te being spouted on the forum this evening. Off to bed I think.

meeke comment.. at stage end

SAT 10:15 - SS11: MEEKE
"In the right conditions we have the speed but I don't think we have the pace to win the rally outright. But as we saw in the last stage anything can happen

in his own words

Wow you actually admit you dont know it all.
