Ford needed the cash for R&amp;D and he's the most expensive (and the best IMHO)

Wonder if he'd let me drive one of those cute little rocket ships?

Default Spoken like a true Brit. How I would rate the drivers:

1. Gronholm - most consistently fast, good on all surfaces

2. McRae - biggest cajones, total commitment, best on gravel

3. Burns - good all surfaces, improving daily

4. Panizzi - absolute tramac master, could really be good on gravel if given the chance to drive them more (and he stops falling off ladders).

5. Sainz - still tough all around, meanest sounding co-driver

6. Solberg - going to be champ some day if he stops making stupid mistakes

7. Martin - this kids is on his way to being a superstar - future champ for sure

8. Loeb - super on tramac, getting better the rough stuff (ie Kenya), full season will help.

9. Makinen - time to retire Tommi....

Default I believe the Citroen's are just about to come into their own. May be smart move for Colin, Nicky,

<center><img src="http://www.freeweb.hu/carpage/carpagerally/backgrounds/focus29-2.jpg"></center><p>
and Citroen. And as a positive... Nicky might even be able to see over the dash in the Citroen. As low as Ford has him in the Focus, He's prolly wearing titanium underwear in case his a$$ goes thru the floor! Kewl picture attached, slow loading. Nicky is BURIED in the car and Colin has his busted finger all taped up.
