my money is on loeb. he won it last yr and wouldn't count him out this yr, also u can't really compare early ralling to the modern stuff, as it is just movin on and evolvin. if rallyin had stay'd the same it would just fade out, got to keep it fresh and gettin faster

How long do you think it'll be before they put GATSOs up on the stages themselves for a bit of guaranteed revenue rasing!   In 2002 Tommi Makienen was speeding to get to the service, going slightly over the limit. The welsh police noted down that it was him, and waited till Wales Rally GB 2003 to fine him. That proves the police are not fining people to make the roads safer. He was going back to Finland the next day and hadn't been in Britain all year  . |

it was not only tommi, it was over 15 of the top 20. and the only reason it was so long was because the police have a system where the worlds best rally drivers can pay a £1000 fine and not have any points or convictions. but when a local rally drive found out about this he try'd to get rid of his speedin points like that and the police said no. so he made a major fuss about it and they were all called in for court and the system was scrap'd

Its also nice to see the improvement Skoda have made this season. They now have 3 points in the WRC Manufacturers points. This is quite low, but a great improvement to their previous results. I can't wait to see the Fabia Evo2 driving. Peugeot are also doing better this season. Seems they have sorted out that gearbox problem from last year ;D. Its a shame Gronholm crashed. Would of been nice to of seen him win the event after such a fight with Solberg. Its a shame PSA will be pulling out of the WRC next season, as I really like the Citroen C4 WRC. Would of been nice to see how it competed. However, there is still hope  |
