duval is er dus niet meer bij, of heb ik dat misgelezen?

ge hebt dat goed gelezen :)

damn, het blijft wel tegenzitten voor loix :(

spijtig, maar toch al chique van loix en hyundai om zolang mee te draaien, en redelijk sterk mee te draaien hé, het moet gezegd!

idd, maar toch nog altij gen punte.

bwah, gans de rallywerled heeft al wel door dat de hyundai een enorm potentieel heeft.
Als ze zo blijven evolueren zie ik ze nog straffe toeren uithalen.
Zeker volgend seizoen, dan zullen ze er volledig staan met een goed uitgeruste WRC.

Het is te hopen dat ze nu ook terug door hebben welk potentieel Freddy heeft...

Technical: Freddy Loix's hopes of a points finish ended after this
morning's second stage. The Belgian had hit a large rock and cracked
the sump guard, and his Accent's engine went sick shortly afterwards.
He reached the end of the test but the damage to the car's crank
sensor meant that he could proceed no further. Armin Schwarz's car,
meanwhile, has run reliably today.

Sporting: Freddy Loix lost his fifth position on the second stage
this morning, when the Belgian hit a rock and damaged his crank sensor
beyond repair. Although he reached the end of the test, he was unable
to continue. Armin Schwarz, meanwhile, has felt better today after he
was troubled by an upset stomach for much of yesterday. The German
didn't like his Accent's handling in the more rutted conditions but
he still brought the car home in ninth, scoring a manufacturers'
point for Hyundai.

Quotes: Armin Schwarz said: "It's been a hard event for us - if we
hadn't had the problems on Friday then we'd have had a better road
position for yesterday, and we could have been higher up. But we've
shown good pace again and it's good to get a point for the team."

Freddy Loix said: "I know we drove very well on this rally and the
car was excellent. I'm just sorry that I wasn't able to get the finish
for everyone in the team who'd worked so hard."

Quote:

Subaru Impreza WRC star Petter Solberg's second fastest time on SS8 of the Acropolis Rally was all the more remarkable given the unusual problem that afflicted him. His steering wheel quite literally started falling off!

Co-driver Phil Mills was on the case at once, after the baffled Norwegian had convinced him of the problem.

“Petter said something, but I didn't catch it the first time,” he said. “Normally he just tells me if there is a tyre going soft or we've got a puncture, and I was getting ready to leap out of the car in case we had to change the wheel on stage.

“I didn't believe what he was saying about the steering wheel, but I managed somehow to get the socket set which was behind my seat. I reached across, managed to find the nut first time thankfully and tightened it up as we were going along.”

The drama didn't end there, the pair struggling blind through the stage as Mills was unable to find his place on the pace notes again.

“Petter was without notes for about six kilometers because it was such a technical stage. It was such a non-descript road – you couldn't find your place on the notes!”

The pair eventually finished fifth overall, and Mills laughed off the incident. “I think we got more exposure from that incident than we would have done if we won the rally!” he said.

Ik weet niet of iemand van jullie die beelden gezien heeft, maar ik kan je zeggen dat het gewoon indrukwekkend was. Dit heb ik nog nooit gezien. Het meest bizarre is zelfs nog de koelbloedigheid van Solberg.
Die beelden zullen sowieso in het jaaroverzicht verschijnen...

Ja ik heb ze gezien in Champions... idd indrukwekkend!
