Nice ....hope this year he manages to get his act together and score some good results.

[Lalo]

Good news for him! I hope he can do better than this year and show all of us what he's capable of!

Better? He has just ran 2 WRC rounds, Sweden and Finland. And in one of them he was on the podium. Come on - what do you expect with no preparations? :)

You mean he didn't run any events with Peugot, ever, in a WRCar?

[RaikkonenRules]

Who's Daniel Carlsson?

The message I quoted said "better than THIS year", and therefore my post was about the performance this year too, of course!! Isn't that quite obvious?

Good call....

I appologize.

Studying 12 hours a day for exams does strange things to the mind...

only 12hrs? i got about 54hrs with only 2 40minute naps.... all that because i lost all my class notes!

[atsiotras79]

Great news! Great choice the Xsara! Daniel can do really well this season!

[Tomi]

if he does well and beat Stohl, maybe he end up driving for Citroen in a few events.

[bennizw]

Remeber Stohl did quite a few events with the Xsara in 2005, so he knows the car rather good.

[A.F.F.]

The scale for Daniel is pretty wide. One burned 307 to podium with Mitsu.

Very good news anyhow. I hope Daniel make the most out of Xsara unlike Tuohino.

[Donney]

Well, good news!!! It's a good chance to see how the Xsara compares to the C4.

[Brother John]

Nice to see Daniel back, I hope he do well in the Xsara. :up:

[J.Lindstroem]

I get the impression when i read the interwievs, that Kronos wants daniel to drive more rallies. So maybe it is more to come.... :)

[Patwrc]

It could be more than 6 events if he can get onto the podium again in Sweden...

Yes, I love Loeb.

That's correct. There is an explicit option of 4-5 more rallies in this - and Kronos wants him to do full season.

[White Sauron]

Maybe the same thing as with Sordo will happen?)

[Jonte]

This is great news!! And it was Kornos who called Daniel, and not the other way.

[J.Lindstroem]

Something tells me, that this is the greatest thing that has happened to swedish rallying, since Rådström in 2001.

[Bjorn240]

I agree. Great news for Swedish rallying.

[Viktory]

amazing news! :D Very happy! Hope he gets some good results!

Yes, thats an option. This is an picture from our first test with the new car :)

[J.Lindstroem]

Great one! I look forward to see it running at high-speed, jumping at Colins Crest!

[StevoEvo]

Well done to Daniel, for securing a fast car for 2007. Shame it's only for 6 rounds tho....
I hope he can get to negotiate a deal to run in Ireland with the Xsara....
He's done this rally for the last 2 years, so knows more than most of the regular WRC crews, and in the awesome on tarmac Xsara, he sholuld go like stink......... ;)

Fortunately for Daniel, there is a big difference between Xsara from Kronos and one from PH-Sport.

Anyway, Daniel has had some good results and also many offs. Speed is there, now he needs to maintain it untill the end

Similar to the way Colin drove, back in the day!!!! all out and no mercy lol
Suppose it's easier to be 110% comited and drop down to 100% than being 90% and trying to find the extra 10%...
I hope Carlsson does well. He's a likeable bloke, from what I've seen
A big :up: for him in 2007!!!

[Magnus]

This might be his last chance, I have a bits of mixed emotions when it comes to Daniel, at times he has the speed, but at other times he seems to make very stupid mistakes. Ok, Bosse sure as **** makes them to, but he at least have to titles behind him. And maybe, at times Daniel should score first, and then talk, not the otherway around!
I´ll keep my fingers crossed, and wish the best for Daniel!

Maybe you're right, but if so - tell me:
When does he talk before he score?

It may be right or wrong but I think that's that kind of opinion that you have to give some arguments for and not only say "that's it".

[jso1985]

This is really a surprise for me.
Always been a Carlsson fan, this is a great chance for him, I hope he can get really good results in Sweden and Norway so he can find some sponsor for doing the entire season :)

[Magnus]

I might be a little tough on Daniel, but one example is his year with Olsberg! The difference between what was supposed to come, and what turned out of the year is big! Also DC s thoughts of how far behind Bosse in a 307 he would be...
Most of all its a impression I have from Daniel, might be wrong, hope I am wrong!

What was his toughts, how much behind?

[Magnus]

I do not remember the exact figure, he failed though...

Well, I don't know who you trust the most, but I can tell you from safe sources that Peugeot management were VERY satisfied with what Daniel did in their car and how he compared to Bosse/Märtin. Only exception is Australia -05. Remember that regular drivers do much testing every year and Daniel like no testing at all.

Regarding Olsbergs I don't know what you think but from what I remember Daniel had one off (slightly off and onto a stone on Sardinia so he couldn't get off - the car was completely OK) and ALL other retirements were technical (gearbox etc). It seemed that the team was the problem, not the driver(s).

However, you might be right anyway but your "evidence" (or arguments) don't impress me!

[Magnus]

As I said: "I might be a little tough on Daniel" ;)

[Koppomsbo]

according to a local newspaper in sweden Daniel thinks its possible to drive 10 rallies next year :up:

[J.Lindstroem]

Who do you think will be his codriver? Mattias Andersson? Bo Holmstrand? Nicky Grist ( ;) )

[Tomi]

Nicky Grist, lol better to choose a co-driver than a wannabe driver.

[cal]

Great for Daniel, I think he can make some good results.

Even though I'm Swedish and like Daniel, I would rather see Kris Meeke getting this drive. I think he could very well be a world champion, which I doubt Daniel can be.

But anyway, great for Daniel and good to get a Swede back on track.

hahaha!
The funniest thing with that clip is that after the car has crashed and the friend flung out of it, someone behind the camera says "Ja det är en dålig bil" which translates to: "Yeah, it's a bad car"
