The 2010 Season has started! Danni Sordo leads the Super special a whole 2 seconds ahead of Sebastian Ogier, Sebastian Loeb meanwhile is 2.3 seconds slower clocking in at 1:33.7 while my favourite Petter Solberg is an alarming 18.3 seconds behind and in 44th after hitting a snow bank and spinning anyone else pumped about this year? I really want Petter to do well, man has been down on his luck for years but has really made a comback with starting his own team after subaru pulled out at the end of '08. Full times list **** I need to go burn some hours in DiRT to get the excitement outta my system.
Man, I haven't been following the WRC for years. Shame really, going to the Rally GB and standing around in cold, wet Welsh forests at stupid o'clock in the morning with some mates was probably the most fun few days I've ever had.
This. I just can't get excited about rallying without decent coverage. Aside from attending, of course
At least people in your country know what Rally is, here in the States it is unknown. However... this summer I am attending rallying school
The man speaks the truth. I love WRC but coverage went severely downhill in the UK when channel 4 lost the coverage. Its such a shame its become a shadow of its former self.
Don't get me wrong - I like the Dave coverage, but it's not long enough. Half an hour can't possibly be enough to cover 3 days of multi-class rally. Give us half an hour/day or a 2 hour special (even if it has to be broadcast at 2am) and I'll be happy.
**** YOU DAVE, GIVE ME RALLY ALL WEEKEND. JUST DONT EDIT THE FOOTAGE FROM THE CARS AND CHANGE CAMERA WHEN PEOPLE FINISH STAGE. NO NARRATING, NOTHING. Also the dakar had stunning coverage by eurosport.
iirc eurosport still cover it but dave hacks it up and reshows it, still i do find some of the stuff they do with the drivers amusing
I can't see it on Eurosport Schedule which is a shame as I subscribed online to watch the IRC coverage and it would be a bonus for me to get WRC thrown into the mix.
So, Kimi is in 10th place, ~3m behind the leaders... I know he's not got the same support as Loeb, but it's the same spec car from what they say. That's a pretty big gap in only a few stages.
