WRC » Wales Rally GB outline route confirmed, ticket prices cut


This has been coming for a while and is as has been said is exactly what the Rally needs to finally breathe life back into it The Big plus for me is no more Micky mouse Saturdays, instead we now have proper Gravel stages on Saturday, and finally we have 3 stages run in complete Darkness to start the party off, I always thought this was the best part of doing the RAC rally as a Driver, and is the part i enjoyed driving the most The Stages are Exciting and are of Top Quality, its a bit sad that i wont be doing them as a driver, but I will definatety be out on all 4 days as a Spectator, im sure there will be a lot more crews entered and a lot more spectators out watching this year

WRC » Loeb completes Peugeot Mont Ventoux test


That was the issue with the Group B cars, very vague but very powerful, a cars handling completely changes when you go on the power during a corner, I would imagine that the power in this car is so much so that you cant really be accurate with the placing of the car in a corner like in the picture when your on the power I would imagine that this car handles a lot better than a Latest Evolution Group B Rally car, but the shear power makes the car difficult to be totally precise with, its would be interesting trying to change the set up to counter this charicoristic

WRC » Citroen: We can win with Hirvonen and Sordo


Yes, I as was just about to say Matton says the win in Argentina confirms all the hard work they have done with the DS3, I just think it was the driver who had the goods to bag the win, I think the car has been capable since Loebs last win on Monte, since then the car has tracked the VW like for like The exact same with the Fiesta, this also has the legs to win but sadly the drivers are not quite there yet, all 3 have the future potential and Malcolm did well to coach Novikov on the final day with his fight with Latvala I certainly dont agree with Matton that his team will win the Manufacturers for the 6th straight year, this is going to be VWs year, Ogier just looks too comfortable and Lavala is starting to get regular Podiums, how is 6th and 9th gonna beat that, its like trying to win a Poker game with a bad hand

WRC » Rally GB moves to North Wales


well, i think they should only allow over 18s to post on this website, clearly we now have 10 year olds reading and posting Its a Refreshing move, Info for our Junior readers, all the Money for this Awesome event comes from the Welsh Assembly, some of which is from which taxes from Farmers, Thankfully all the Sheep contribute to the Farmers Revenues lol The stages are far better to the North, Pantperthog, Dyfi, Clocaenog, Bettws y Coed etc, I miss drving these stages, maybe one day i will be back in a Historic car to reflect its drivers age - lol Im Really looking forward to the Night stages too, something i have been saying we need to bring back

WRC » Prodrive confirms power boost for MINI


You would think that with VW joining the WRC and Hyundai and Toyota heading back to the Sport Ford and Mini would step up to the plate and prepare for a straight 6 way Manufacturer Fight, something we havnt seen for a very Long time I realise Money is tight but Malcolm has found a way to continue without Fords pockets so it wouldnt cost Ford massive Bucks to Return in an official capacity and im sure if BMW flashed a couple of Million at Prodrive they too would have an official Team again, albiet the best drivers are now contracted Hyundai and Toyota are obviously not fazed by the lack of Top drivers available to drive their cars so Mini, Toyota and Hyundai would all be in the same predicament. I cant understand why Mini dont commit, Prodrive are obviously determined to make the Mini a winner on Jobseekers allowance, so with some serious dosh they could be up there

WRC » M-Sport completes latest Fiesta R5 test


Well there has been so much confusion in this category with the flip flop rules over the years, S2000, then RRC now R5, all of them in the same class, I think the latest category sounds like its right on the money, the cars ahould be a lot faster than an S2000 and cheaper than an RRC. I think this will become a very closely contested category again and there will be some Big names competing in this category, Ford, Skoda and Peugeot all have cars almost completed for competition, im sure the rest will follow suit quickly enough so they can compete for wins on the World Stage Drivers like Esapekka Lappi, Elfyn Evans, Craig Breen, Robert Kubica etc etc will all have a chance to show off their skills in this soon to be Hotly contested category soon enough, its looking really promising....

WRC » Atkinson fights back to take sixth, hopeful of further outings


For Grant. The Answer to your question about Atko getting all the drives and Not Meeke it really is very simple, MONEY ! Atko Leased the DS3 and just paid for the Ford Drive straight out. As we all know Meeke has bags of Talent and No Money, somethnig that sadly is a well know factor that faces lots of Rally Drivers. This is the Reason I walked away from the Sport, I just got fed up with looking for Sponsors all the time and the costs were going up and up as i progressed. You need Talent and Money to get ahed in this Sport

WRC » Atkinson fights back to take sixth, hopeful of further outings


Petter was usually fighting for a Podium place on every Rally, He was a potential winner every time he got behind the wheel, you simply cant compare him with Atko, also Meeke was really getting there and would of made a Top Driver, he was 3rd on Rally GB on his last Rally with Mini. I just dont see Atko as a Decent enough driver to get regular drives in the WRC, sorry if some think its harsh but there are better and more promising drivers around who need the breaks
