i was able to catch it just after getting back from a wild tarmack course with Mark & Brandon.

tuned out to be a nice fight to the very end! Solberg vs. Loeb - young guns are taking over the WRC. They were a minute away from the 3rd place (Burns - 2001 world champ). That was very nice racing!!!

[Piotrov]

Say who wone? I was hoping Solberg would win!
I was watching it for and hour and then they put a comercial every damn 2 minutes so i said the hell with it!
It was a really good fight
Also found out that Tommi is retiering and Colin might lose a ride for next year.
New rules may be implemented into the FIA WRC... such as teams can only run two cars per manufacterer and Rally Mexico and Japan may be joining the Championship which should be quite exciting with 16 rallys on next years calendar.

[GT4LechacZ]

Solberg won but it was really close (5 or 6 seconds)
Makinen has been talking retirement since last year and in reality hasn't been good since that big crush in San Remo 2 or 3 years ago so he wouldn't get signed anyway.
Colin is a dick so I would be a lot happier if Citroen kept Sainz!

[Piotrov]

Yea Sainz Rocks man! My all time two fav drivers are Sainz and Kankkunen!
I think Tommi dont have much more to strive for with 4 titles in a row.
Plus his co driver is already retiered.
What happened to Louis Moya? (Sainz's co-driver)

[GT4LechacZ]

Moya wanted more money than Citroen offered, so he quit.
Carlos is still doing ok without him so too bad
here is an article about the decission:
