2013 Rally Mexico Day 2
2013 Rally Mexico
So are we handing the title to Ogier already? Jebus. From one dominating Frenchman to another. He leads heading into Day 2. Fun Fact: This is Ken Block’s only rally of the year. He’s doing quite well. For a guy that picked up rallying as a hobby late in his 30’s, to be even […]
Sweden Rally 2013 Day 1.
Change of the guards. I think this is the rally the torch is passed from Sebastien to Sebastien. You shouldn’t be able to lead the Swedish rally without 1. A proven rally car 2. Scandinavian heritage. Ogier is doing without either. It’s rather impressive.

WRC of Old?
The contenders…. Ford Fiesta Citroen DS3 Mini (BMW+Prodrive) After the first day of the Rally Sweden it looks like the Loeb show might be over. Hope to fuck, that’s the case. I don’t hate him or anything, I just feel winning 7 titles in a row put a damper on the WRC as a whole. […]
