That's hilarious! :lol:

Marcush, they're making fun of the constant knob activity because it looks like he can't quite find an appropriate radio station. The brake balance or whatever changing is obvious in racing terms. No offense, but you kind of add to the stereotype that Germans don't have much of a sense of humor.

This is what marshals are supposed to prevent, injury to a driver by standing around and not having any sort of direction or leadership. They ARE NOT race control and they don't decide when a race is restarted by waving stupid goddamn flags. No matter what everyone here thinks they are tasked with, they are supposed to clean up wrecks and put out fires, not restart races. Full stop. They miserably failed here. Every one of them should get some sort of criminal type punishment and the track at Brno should not hold an FIA sanctioned event for a very long time. This is absolutely terrible. Heads would roll if I was in charge of the FIA, this track would immediately lose it's license to hold races of any sort, to include foot races.

Ken Block bet Kimi 100 Euros he could beat him on a two lap sprint and they tied dead even with each other. Maybe we'll have an American that can run in WRC and do well. Go Ken Block!


Ken Block wrote:To be honest, I wasn't expecting to win, but was willing to lose a 100 Euros on the chance to wax a former F1 World Champ.

In front of the packed Algarve Stadium, Block and Gelsomino lined up against Kimi Räikkönen and his co-driver Kaj Lindström for two laps of the 1km course. Off the line, Block took the jump and from that point until the last turn the two were neck and neck, swapping minor leads but eventually crossing the finish line at the exact same time (2:11:0). “What are the chances of that?” said Block immediately after the race. “But either way, I am stoked to have tied Kimi, afterall he does know a thing or two about driving on tarmac surfaces, plus I didn’t lose 100 Euros.”

Block looks like he can make a name for himself in WRC, his appearance on Top gear was fantastic... I think he was in the points in rally mexico this year before he had a mechanical problem.

Still wondering why I didnt get any rally portugal coverage on my DVR when it went down.
