Onboard rally video of the day - Hirvonen with Ford Fiesta WRC at Rally Mexico

avatar

Hi, friends!

I mast admit that I was pissed off when Finn Mikko Hirvonen got his works seat at Subaru WRC team in 2004 instead of Colin McRae or somebody else who didn't have to pay for the seat in that time.

Yeah, Hirvonen's seat at Subaru was paid by his manager Timo Jouhki, very powerful Finnish manager who later takes 50% of every future contract with the driver.

Well, it's not my business but I think that works seats are for the best drivers on the market.

Hirvonen lost his seat at the end of that season because of the poor results but later made his career at Ford WRC team.

And he did well at Ford, he was different driver later in his career.

Watch this onboard of him and judge by yourself...
