[WRC] Central European Rally 2023 (26-29 Oct)

[Doon]

I can’t watch most of the rally because it’s being shown on TNT Sport One Thousand Five Hundred and Sixty Nine, and Virgin Go only supports four TNT sport channels. There must be four more important live events at this time of morning lol.

Anyway, reading stage end comments from ewrc makes me question if many of the drivers actually like rallying. All moaning about something. 10 top cars, all the drivers moaning or unmotivated. One car dominating the rally. Don’t think there’s much in following WRC anymore, it’s a shambles, dying a slow death.

Wow such drama in WRC2 for the title contenders, I was hoping to have some fight but it seems it will be more about survival.

About the grumpy drivers it's nothing new, these guys are only happy if they are winning. I don't say he should do this but I can understand Tanak, remember when he shook hands and said to Malcolm and Rich he is going there "to win", the season is almost over and they apparently only updated the diffs and the car fell apart a lot, you would be grumpy too. As for Ogier, again nothing new remember when he complained about road position? But I think it's a bit unfair to Pirelli, he clearly had a big chunk of rim missing...

It's on the normal TNT Sports 1 live on Sky.

Kalle slightly overshot a hairpin.

Re Tänak quote
"I'm trying but we are out of options. There's no tools to put the wet setup on this car, so undrivable for me. It's not forgiving at all, it will be a long day."

It sounds to me like more a complaint about no midday service

[Doon]

Ah, just started. It was in TNT sport 8 last night 😂 didn’t even know it went that high

I think it does not make sense to read them out of context. They are just coming with high adrenaline and they are desperately angry for every tiny timeloss they had.

[Doon]

He’s still moaning though.

Ok, but since we lost Craig Breen, has any driver said something along the lines of, “this is so much fun, I love this rally”

[becher]

Well they are honest. Or you want the usual end of stage interview with phrases like “No feeling”, “it is what it is” ?

Aj one can be honest and still not have a dig at his employer every five minutes.
