    I’m not sure what people want asked at stage ends, but when Seb or Molly says “You dropped 20 seconds in there, what was the reason?” I think that’s about as much as they can say, they aren’t going to hit them with “Wow, 20 seconds in 10km! You’re in the wrong job mate, stealing a living”.
    In rally, part of the problem is they all get asked the same thing 18-20 times over a weekend.

    In terms of the talent pool in WRC, it is shallow, but when we have at best only 9 Rally 1 cars, it is disappointing when 2 of them are not filled with the best candidates. (Loubet/Taka).

    As I understand, as their place is "sponsored", they don't take away anyone's elses place away. From this point of view, I prefer to have them compared to not have those extra cars.

    This is the problem with the Rally1 cars... unless another manufacturer or two join the WRC (v.unlikely), there will only be a few seats available due to the crazy costs for a privateer.

    Whilst it's been good seeing these amazing machines and the previous-gen WRC1 cars, but it's not been healthy for the sport overall.

    The WRC has made its bed and now has to lie in it.

    Remember those guys that were fighting on stage, just a seconds before Ogier came in?
    Well today they were arrested and the judge gave them a sentence of 760 € + 20 € of administration costs to each one of three of them.

    They got away pretty lightly,imo. It was an incredibly stupid situation and the punishment should have been harsher. Send them to jail for some time (not something enormous - maybe a week or so-) plus some social service.
