Pulling on the WRC's heartstrings
Emotions are running high in rallying's top echelon right now and, as David Evans explains, there are plenty of folk prepared to ride the storm for the good of the sport
For somebody who's only just come to terms with the end of Group B, last week in Spain was a tricky one.
I'm not very good with change.
When Carlos Sainz retired at the end of 2004 (before he returned for two rallies in 2005 to stand in for the benched Francois Duval). When Rally Australia left Perth two years later or when Marcus Gronholm called a halt to his career three years later. I remember them all. And felt a real sadness that things wouldn't really be the same again.
