WRC 2014 : All Chat Here

[Sam.]

Should be a good rally this weekend; both championships settled, Meeke on home soil (mud), Mikko bowing out & of course Matthew Wilson is back!!

 

[Cess]

All set for Hafren tomorrow. Early start ahead.

Go Meeke, McCormack & Fisher.

 

[Cess]

Mid-Wales has no 3G so can't provide updates or pics I'm afraid. This is 6am rush hour in Dolgelleau

Breen in service on WRC radio for the weekend

Edit.........And he is hilariously terrible at it lol. They were taking the piss out of him about not fluttering his eyes to get interviews.

 

[Neil Kirkpatrick]

Local Phillp Morrow is doing brilliant too in his Group N evo , Josh Moffett a bit back.
WRC 2 is looking like a great battle with everyone setting very similar times. I wish I wish I was in that welsh mud

 

[Reno_LV]

We should have went @Neil Kirkpatrick. Tried getting somebody else onboard and no luck Had already work booked off in case we will go... Next year!

Here's hoping for a JML/Meeke/Hirvonen podium

 

[Sam.]

Maybe M-Sport should take Henning next year instead of Ott Tanak

It was a last minute decision to enter. He's driving M-Sport's battered Fiesta test car, and the first time he sat in it was shakedown yesterday. 9th O/A, and only 10 seconds off Tanak.
