Question

Come on who's your money on then, Colin or Richard ???

Quick Facts:

Richard has won the last 3 Rally of Great Britain (Rally of Wales.)

Richard is known to crack under the pressure.

Colin is as cool as ice but has crashed on the last 3 when he has been leading !!!!

Tommi has never finished well on the Rally GB and the new car on top of all that makes it unlikely he will win the event.

My money is on Collin to be the World Rally Champion.

Daz.


Edited due to crap spelling due to a very large hangover as pointed out by Dave.

Hmmmmm bit of a question. I was thinking about this one last night. In my mind it comes down to Colin or Richard...

Difficult one, but I'd stick my neck out and say Colin so long as it can keep it cool.

Did anyone see the cars jump on the last stage in Oz, or the jump which made Colin and Richard land at a riduculas angle ?

OMG

Gotta agree that Burns must look favorite. He has a good record on the event and hopefully he has the reliabilty. One thing is that it will be a cracking race. Cant wait

My money is obviously on COLIN, not Collin!!

The Whinging Ginger T@#t will crack under the big pressure.

Good Rally (not race) in prospect.

Don't ever mention the word 'race' to a rally driver - they're not the same thing!!!!!!!!!

Colin has to be odds on (providing he can get out of bed for the race oops rally order)

did u see it? it was farcical!

IMO Colin should have been MADE to run 1st, instead of the 'sacrifical lamb' not to mention the poor guy who got hurt

anyone know how he's doin?

I would put my money on the guy who has the most points at the end of the series, if I were into betting, that is.

Don't rule-out Makinen they are starting to get the car right and the Network Q is not on tarmac.

Until you know you will never know, but when you know you will know.

Tommi has never had a good finish on the Rally GB ever and I think that the Evo7 is better on the loose than the black stuff but it's not going to be good enough.

Alistair McRae is the man for me next year, a good car that is bound to get better and Colin admits Alistair is faster than he is, move over big brother.

Darren.

Colin will win this year, Alistair next maybe !!!
