WRC Portugal All 06 Focus WR cars given 5 minute penalty
Ive just read that all the Ford Focus 06 WRC cars have been given a 5 minute penalty each due to the rear side windows being 0.5mm thinner than the original homoligation thicknes

Of course it is stupid to fit different parts than the homoligation, but the weight of the cars was above the minimum weight, so it's not as if they gained anything by it
A time penalty was not needed IMO.
And Loeb not needing it to become champion......... he wasn't leading the championship until now.

The only way Fords will get a drivers champion is if Loeb is in the car.
Fords need to sort more than the rear windows out...it's a fookin ugly car.

I was SO annoyed when I heard about the time penalty.. Just Ford's luck to get such a hefty penalty over 0.5mm! Like some have said rules is rules but would Mr. Wilson really have known the windows were 3mm instead of 3.5mm? Maybe he's just put an order in for a set of homoligated windows assuming the company have the correct dimensions?

I loved Colin McRae! I think he was one of the most spectacular drivers there has ever been
maybe not the fastest but very very entertaining.
Loeb might be fast but hes boring as hell to watch
I'm a big fan of Solberg also

You might not like one persons driving style etc but to say you HATE him is a bit strong is it not?
Oh and Paul...Im sure Colin cares that you hate him
