WRC FINLAND – RECAPTURING THE ESSENCE OF MOTORSPORTS!

So, in France there is a particular species of catfish (fish) that ‘creeps’ gingerly towards the shore and patiently selects the appropriate time to leap from the water in an attempt to snatch a feeding,wayward pigeon! Yes, a fish, which resides in water, attacking a bird which is on the land!

In previous blogs I have referred to WRC drivers as individuals who occupy rarefied air in the art of driving. An apology is not necessary, Like Mike Tyson, before he was floored by Robin Givens, they are the undisputed champions of the driving world!

GROUP B

It is my view though that in order to occupy a seat in one of the current, savage, Group B-type monsters which parade as WRC machines, the drivers are subjected to a surgical procedure which reinforces and fortifies that which we refer to as ‘balls’! The manner in which these machines are hurtled along narrow pathways which dissect dense forests confirms my suspicions.

No sane, mortal individual – the driver –  would employ the use of seat restraints and summon the assistance of another deranged being – the copilot – to expedite the rapid movement of a projectile – the WRC machine –  from Point A to Point B. But, in the WRC, this is commonplace. And guess what? We absolutely love it!

The WRC must be saluted for recapturing the essence of motorsports!
