Btw, between call Clark pathetic or considering him the most notorious rally journalist of the world, there’s probably a better way to define his work, once even he admitts not being a journalist. A journalist main job is to inform and report, not to speculate or entertain; in that sense I miss a more active presence of Mr. Holmes, for decades the most respected rally news source, and believe that it’s fair to admit that Evans is now the main reference in that field, no matter how people judge his work. Anyway, Clark surely deserves credit for opening a new kind of rally comunication in the social media and there’s plenty of room and freedom for others to follow him.
Call his style what you will, journalism or creator of speculation, but he clearly doesn’t actually understand the sport, the driving, what’s REALLY going on in the cars, in the drivers heads, on the stages.
The guys a complete fraud.
He’s happier talking about how good looking Mikkelsen is, rather than why the Citroen handles like a bag of shit etc.
Honestly, can’t understand why people keep defending the guy.
He literally sits at his keyboard and table and babbles as much crap as his energy reserves will allow him.
As a person, I actually like him (believe it or not), but as someone who has responsibility reporting on rallying, he should be nowhere near it.
Put it this way, if he had to transfer his level of understanding of rallying to premiership football, as a pundit, he wouldn’t even get close to local radio, never mind TV.
I honestly can’t be arsed going over every prediction or thought that’s come out of his mouth since he has somehow gained a bit of momentum, but I reckon if I did, you could literally destroy everything he’s said.
Bring back Mark James and with him a few facts, not this shit.
