I forgot it was tomorrow there already. Just clicked on the link and :eek: it's on!
Burnsie's in front after the first leg.
Tommi and Petter are both still in the rally.:D
Paasonen came in 5th on the first leg in a Mitsubishi against a full WRC field. They've got to be ecstatic.

Ugh, coverage schedule on Speed is the same as usual, so I guess we don't get to see what happened today until Friday night :(

Surprise, surprise. Another Peugeot 1-2-3 at the end of Leg 1. :rolleyes: Who else is sick of this?

I still think Burns has a chance to steal the Championship. He has been right there all season and these are his favorite rounds coming up.
| jaybird | 10-04-2002 11:05 AM |
Burns would need to win all three and Marcus would have to get less then 7 points in the next three.

Wow Burns must have really smoked the field on the stages he won. Petter won the last 2 of the day and he's sixth and 45 seconds behind Burns.
| brainrally | 10-04-2002 01:53 PM |
How about that Jani Paasonen? Relatively inexperienced, jumping in with barely a week's notice, bringing the LANCER up to 4th. Only on the last two stages he lost time, dropping just behind Tommi and barely ahead of Petter.
The Mitsu team has to be feeling good, especially after setting fastest time on SS5.

What Petter won were just the Super Specials. Only 2 kilometers long so you can't make up a whole lot of time.

AMAZING! Petter and Tommi are both still in the rally! Oh well I guess there is still plenty of time for Tommi to crash and Petter to have mechanical problems.
but I hope not. :D

| Sea Dragon Rex | 10-04-2002 05:56 PM |
I think they mentioned that Tommi was having some kind of intercooler problems yesterday.
Petter just passed ahead of Tommi on Stage 9 and both are ahead of Paasonen in the Evo VII! Woo, hoo!! Maybe they'll be able to catch the Peugeots, NOT! Hope Subie has something up it's sleeves for next year. I don't think they have a chance in the Manufacturer's Championship unless they get another good driver.
Maybe the bug-eyes are slowing them down! :confused:

Tommi's already had brake and turbo problems. I wonder what could possibly fail on the car tomorrow.
| Wheels | 10-05-2002 05:26 AM |
Solberg rocks and should be subarus number 1 driver. Tommi way over drives that car. Why cant he get used to letting the car do most of his work that he did in the EVO.
| Patrick L | 10-05-2002 12:09 PM |
Now all we need are the top 2 Pugs to have problems. :devil:

sounds like speedtv threw in another n00b for an announcer:rolleyes: kinda funny listening to his name pronunciations:lol:

Suspicions
Truly a cruel turn of luck for Solberg. He really deserved the podium here.
Though I can't help but wonder about Peugeot's dominance... something doesn't smell quite right.

I don't know if anyone else saw the results but Possum Bourne was #1 in GrpN in an Impreza. I know David Higgins won GrpN last year at the network q and it was the first time in forever an Impreza had beat an EVO in GrpN.

first off... easy on Tommi....
it IS his first year in the subaru.. and i am sure that it's still not set up to his liking.. that Evo he drove was HIS... set up for HIM... the guy is a huuuuuuuge talent. do not over look him...
and Petter :(
broke my heart... poor guy drove the piss out of the rally
only to be let down again. major, major bummer.
and Burns :lol:
sorry dude... keep it out of the bank next time!!

I don't really know... it just seems like Tommi has lost his edge. Petter was driving phenomenally all rally, and to see him blow the motor practically made me cry.
I was cursing Tommi's podium because, frankly, he doesn't deserve it. But, at the end of the Speed coverage, he redeemed himself by saying something along the lines of "this isn't how I wanted a podium spot" and how bad he felt about Petter's failure. That was Petter's spot, and it was nice to see Tommi acknowledge that.

Oh yeah, and Colin? Listen to your co-driver.
I don't see how Colin magically turned a "two kay right don't cut" into a "fast flat three."
Nicky's got lots of experience in the passenger seat ... give him the benefit of the doubt, once in a while. :D

I've said it before but I wonder if Tommi ever really got comfortable with the new co-driver. Combine that with a new car and it might be an explanation for his overall less than stellar performance this year. Hopefully some rally Petter will have a clean race and not have the car fail him. Poor guy.
But damn those Pugs are fast :eek: They just seem to be leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else on just about every surface.

If you listen, shortly before entering the corner, Colin asks "three?" to Nicky, who corrects, emphatically "NO, TWO!" ... mere moments before he clipped the gate on the inside. Admittedly, the gate was hidden behind a strategically located shrubbery, but the initial call from Nicky reflected that. Perhaps a caution note was in order, but at the same time, Colin mistrusted his own brain enough to try and verify with Nicky, but it was too late.
Many/most drivers would have been more conservative on the corner if they thought they might have mis-heard the call, but I guess that's the difference between a WRC driver and a first-year ClubRally driver.
At the same time, those of us in the silly seat get a chill when a driver doesn't seem to be paying attention. :D
