I fell asleep thanks to the weekender and some how I knocked off the series link on Sky+. 🙁

Not nearly as good as the European Rally drivers, just look at Loeb for some real class.

I'm going to wait 'til the end then wind it back and watch it again. Several times.

I managed to miss the first twenty minutes of it, but saw the Ken Block segment. Awesome.

But... I would not want his tyre bill at the end of the month. And James May was right, I swear it might be faster to go in a straight line sometimes.

I just don't get the Ken Block thing - he's a pretty middling rally driver if you look at his results, certainly no Loeb/Gronholm, then he gets some sponsorship, makes a few videos powersliding round airfields and becomes a megastar? Guess that's the power of the internet these days but his car control isn't that exceptional when you get to the sharp end of the talent pool - here's a [url=

of Loeb doing the same stuff, except this one's all done in one take...
