[Jinu13]

Has anyone been down to see the WRC cars and the "season launch" at the Autosport International expo today? http://www.wrc.com/en/wrc/news/january-2018/launch-reminder-/page/5112--12-12-.html

[N.O.T]

yes

[Jinu13]

Ah, did you see any potato dogs or was there lots of good stuff going on?

[N.O.T]

i did not go... you asked if anyone has been...

the answer is yes, at least 2.000

[Fitz]

Yeah.
I quite enjoyed it, just milling around watching the presentations.

Why o why Latvala was walking around with a red baseball cap on all the time was odd.

Ford Performance are hoping to build on the good base they have & will be looking at Engine, aerodynamics & chassis 👍

What are potato dogs?

[Jinu13]

@NOT haha should have worded that one better
@GigiGalliNo1 NOT's "potato dog" generally refers to Neuville but can mean others he doesn't take to.

Latvala has started to loose his hair, there is bold area in back of his head, that´s why cap all the time.

I presume it was held at the Autosport Show to generate interest in the WRC for 2018; so, how many non rally (general motorsport) journalists were there, taking an interest.

[Jinu13]

Yesterday and today were trade only so I assume thats when the majority of journos were around, but I'll have a look to see if any are still around tomorrow and also post some photos up if the cars are still there.

Someone made a model of when Neuville nearly killed 50 people in Poland, that's interesting...
