Seasons coming down to the wire - first day couldn't be closer.... Your thoughts!

fking eco-warriors need to be shot. Getting a stage closed... Tossers.

The tactics have really been bothering me this season - what was wrong with running the top cars in reverse order like they used to. That way none of the top runners were penalized and the fight was on the stages. Sunday is poised to be incredibly close but because Hirvonen is 'sweeping' the roads the action won't be nearly as close as it potentially could be.

They should have been arrested and charged with bringing the country's reputation down.

Its not just F1 that suffers from stewards changing the results after the race:

It's not unexpected to receive a penalty if the car doesn't meet the homologated spec, normally the car is excluded in those circumstances, so Citroen have been quite fortunate. Or are you complaining that the cars should have been thrown out but only received a time penalty?

Yeah but on the bright side looks like Loeb isn't going to win this year, about time for Hirvonen, he deserves it.

I'm so sure, Hirvonen will finish 3rd at best in Spain (unless Sordo bins it) and he'll be back on road sweeping duties for Rally GB.
