Ari Vatanen on WRC
taken from wrc.com:
“These youngsters are very fast,” admitted the 51-year-old MEP, “but I expected that.” He’s not doing so badly in his 2001-spec Peugeot 206 WRC, though he’s having to work at it. “I have to listen very carefully to every note.” The 206 has impressed the veteran, despite his limited mileage in it so far. “I haven’t done much testing – one day in France and two hours here in Finland,” he explained. “The car feels quite easy to drive. There’s a bit of oversteer, but compared to the 205 it feels quite luxurious – not as brutal.” From now on the pace should improve you’d have thought, but Ari’s not quite saying that. “”Anyway I need to slow down now, because I don’t want to finish in the top three and ruin my chances of a factory drive next year.” I bet Colin McRae isn't laughing though! |

Well who would you vote for, the rally legend, or the lawyer?
