Jamie

Did you see the In Car Footage on Eurosport ?

If not he lost it big time going through the flying finish on a slight right bend.

Back came round and he disappeared into the tree's at exceedingly high speed.

His explanation was that he was trying HARD but held his hands up and admitted that he was at fault.

Respect is due.

Roll on ( No Pun intended ) Cyprus.

Talking

Neil,

Did you se the footage of Pekka Solberg's off!!

Methinks an incorrect pacenote could have been the only reason for him coming into that bend about 300mph too fast!!

And furthermore did anyone see the Donegal Rally on the back of the World Motorsports programme? Brilliant coverage and three WRC Scoobs battling it out.

Mr McHale also joined the spectacular accident club in his Corolla.

Twas indeed a great night for rally fans, (even had some French Tarmac Championship footage).

Thumbs up

Blubs , Etheridge

Petter Solberg is a top lad and was let off the leash for this one.

I had a chat with him in Catalunya at the post rally P155 up and he was a really nice chap ( and he was always smiling ).

The World Motor Sports show is cracking ( well the last hour of it anyway ).

I do like the Canadian stuff as well.

The Irish championship is just the TOPS.

Did you catch the TARA Motorsport show covering the Lurgan Special the other week.

One scoob did a corner a bit too quick and slow mo rolled onto it's side , then caught fire. I think the chap continued after putting out the fire.
