Rally Discussion and Bar Talk Thread

Indeed. I have that stuck in my head now. Get a totalled rally car, restore it cosmetically and have it as a garden ornament. I need to think of an idea to protect it from the weather a bit and to convince my wife

My first rally car is buried in the front yard, one of my team had it cubed by the scrap metal guys and left it on my front lawn.

I have a stupid question. If the World Champion driver changes his codriver halfway through the season, who is going to be the codriver champion? The one codriver with the biggest amount of points or the latest codriver of the drivers champ?

With most points. Check out season 1993

I guess that is the reason they have two different championships and the co-driver that has amassed the most points will be the world champion co-driver. So at least theoretically it is possible that the driver and co-driver champions are part of different teams come the last rally of the season.

Edit: AnttiL was faster than me

I was typing on my phone, but the long story of 1993 is that Kankkunen's regular co-driver Juha Piironen had a seizure during Rally Argentina recce and couldn't compete anymore. Thus Kankkunen was paired with Nicky Grist and Denis Giraudet for the rest of the season, taking wins with all three co-drivers and winning the title, but none of the co-drivers made as many points as Francois Delecour's co-driver Daniel Grataloup. Probably the only time this happened?

According to my crystall ball SS1 of Rallye Monte Carlo 1983 will become a topic of discussion in the days leading up to Monte Carlo 2018
