    I think the most impressive numbers in WRC - aside from the speed they drive at - is the time taken to change components of a car. 10 minutes to change all the suspension and 20 minutes to change a gearbox isn't special - Subaru (I guess that means Prodrive) once changed a gearbox and rear diff on an Impreza in some seconds over 10 minutes. OK, it is all designed to be quick-changed, but even so....

    Thanks for posting this. Learned a bit. With Discover HD or whatever it called now I miss watching Rally.

    I liked the live streaming they did in France, though the time difference was a bit of an issue... Can't tell whether they're going to continue to do it. It may have been just a proof of concept experiment.
