WRC

[Altrezia]

So then, with the WRC looming next week, I was wondering where/if it is going to be televised?

I really want to get back into the WRC, but it's been so dull for the last few years. It has some fantastic talent this year, so I'm going to try and get enthusiastic again.

Yep, it will be televised, and like last year, it will be on the channel called dave, think sunday at 6pm

[Altrezia]

Oh. That was one of the reasons I didnt watch last year, that guy with the belt around his knees. Oh well.

There are also daily highlights on Motors TV for each event - think its about 10.20pm each day or somewhere around there.

Yes - they did a pre-season review yesterday (not much use now I know! sorry)

Few bits with Kimi & Block...

...as much as I rate Kimi I sometimes struggle to believe him when says "Its all new so every single thing is exciting for me"... but sounds like he has just been told his dog has died@!

I know what you mean about kimi, so the story goes, when you get to know, he has a wickedly dry sense of humour and is one of the funniest people around. Really??? You could have fooled me

The daily 'Motors tv' coverage is repeated a few times each night if you miss out.

The launch video is funny (late on). Kimi's normal style interview followed by excited Ken Block, what a contrast.

My end of year standings prediction is
1. Sebastien
2. Mikko
3. Jari
4. Petter
5. Sordo

That is what I am hoping for anyway.

What is yours?

Sounds a bit like Alan Shearer then, supposed to be a great guy in real life and a real cracking guy to have in the changing rooms, but just comes across as boring and dull on match of the day.

Preview repeated sat and sun morning on Dave

and as said WRC coverage as usual 1hr (with barley 30min actual footage) on dave @6pm sun, and 1hr nightly 10.20pm on Motors TV

wish we had BBC F1 levels of coverage, with red button, live times etc, but at least new F1 points system and lack of super rally rules should help liven it up a little, heres hopeing Miko and Jari have some more to come this year keeping Loeb honest

Oh come on,be fair, shearer at least cracks a smile once every blue moon, i still dont think i have seen kimi do that yet, but i take your point about the similarities between them

Kimi smiles at the very start of the rally preview programme on Dave (repeated this weekend).

If he is not doing an 'official' interview then he comes across as much more relaxed. Look him up on You Tube and you should find some examples.

Practical Joker.

Similar humour to Berger.
