Well, I was out of town over the weekend, and couldn\'t watch the day by day coverage of the Rally, but I did see the XS summary tonight. Makinen must be mad as hell right now. Yeah, lots of people are hating Prodrive these days after all the f**k ups. However, McRae\'s car burst into flames, so Subaru aren\'t the only ones with problems right now.
It\'s clear that Peugeot is pouring HEAPS of cash into their team; not only in driver salaries and marketing, but also the unglamourous things that actually win rallies... like research & development and hiring top technical staff. At this point no one\'s going to win a championship until Peugeot decides they don\'t want it anymore.
