  1. it's better to take the fine than lose the points. I'm sure they can afford it
    Of course, but 10k is still a lot of money! Even to someone on Ogier’s salary! Apparently it went down as an illegal service which is stupid. This shouldn’t have had any consequences at all, just a silly mistake, and it was the marshal who gave the time card to Tanak, so not really Ogier’s fault

  2. I can’t see Ogier being penalised, unless there are any specific rules about it. From what I’ve seen on Twitter, the only rules about time cards say the crew is responsible for it. Being irresponsible for it doesn’t then necessarily mean you get a penalty. Even a fine would be stupid.

    Anyway, that was a fantastic last day of the rally, I was literally on the edge of my seat watching Thierry come through the powerstage, and I was up on my feet watching Ogier come through! I didn’t mind who won, but I think Thierry deserved it for that drive!

    Sorry to see Paul is leaving! I remember the first time I met him when I sat down at random in a forest on Rally GB about 5 years ago, looked to my right and he was sat next to me! Thanks for letting me be part of the last two games, even if it was only a small part! Best of luck for the future 

  4. Codemasters don’t usually do big announcements at places like e3. Personally I wouldn’t have thought it would be a good time to do an announcement, with so many big game news coming out, it’s easy to get lost in the stream. Especially with the likes of fallout and such being shown

    They’ll do nothing now, but hover around the mid-field and come last in the Manu Championship.

    He drove the car at 11 tenths to just about keep within reach of the rest of the field.  I think the car/team put him under massive pressure to overdrive 
    You say that, but Loeb lead in Mexico in the same car without pushing it to the absolute extremes (yeah I know road position helped). To some degree, he was under a lot of pressure to deliver results in possibly the worst out of the 4 cars, but huge accidents when you aren’t even in contention for a win don’t look good.

    People like to compare him to McRae, but The difference is Colin won a driver’s title, almost two.

    anyway, I like Kris, and he’s an incredibly talented driver, so I am sad to see him go.

    DiRTy gossip thread right now :

    Tell me if i forgot anything.  :#
    As a fan of his, I appreciate the inclusion of Craic, but am disappointed at the lack of Jeff Bridges and Kebab.
    *edit, Craic and the Kebab have been adressed, but I still miss ol' Porky.

    Hmm, hello Meeke's WRC C3 in The Crew 2 (at 16:35): https://youtu.be/9Dea_09hKhI
    The Crew 2 also has the Red Bull RB13 from 2017 in it too! In a series that amusingly is called Alpha Grand Prix lol
    All I can say about The Crew 2 is... I wouldn't look that forward to it.
    I picked up the first one as the free game of the month on Xbox live, and after playing it for half an hour I realised why it was free and never played it again

  7. I don’t really like the way everyone seems to put ‘dirt rally 2’ and ‘dirt 5’ as two completely different games. Dirt 4 has some handling flaws, but people seem to forget it was/is a simulator. The only difference between the two games was really budget and scale. Unfortunately not everything in the handling for dirt 4 improved over dirt rally for whatever reason, but that’s not to say that dirt 5 handling isn’t going to be as realistic is dirt rally 2 (not talking about any ‘gamer’ mode obviously)

    Speaking seriously i dont want to see infection and cat n mouse modes in any Dirt game by CM , that modes are for pure arcade games like Forza horizon , Gravel  On rush etc
    I bet you're a blast at parties.
    What do you mean?
    I don’t see the problem in having a fun game mode in a serious racing sim. Allows for a bit of a distraction from endless racing, and it keeps players coming back. If you looked at dirt 3, the party modes were the longest surviving online lobbies, same with demo derby on grid

  9. Infection mode form DiRT 3 would also be a fun return to pvp. I also love cat and mouse.
    I had many, many hours of fun on car and mouse, capture the flag and infection with a group of friends. Solo capture the flag in private sessions, as well as four teams of two on cat and mouse were incredibly good fun

  10. Another issue I see is when the game comes out, which is difficult for a racing license. If it comes out at the start of the year, it would be based on the previous years cars and locations, so would already be out of date. Too late in the year and it’s out of date almost immediately. F1 already comes out in August/September? So that’s tied up for codemasters.

    Nothing like killing the Gossip speculation momentum there RCM...  lol
    It’s just something I do in my old age now  :D
    What next? I bet you’ll try and convince us that the Easter bunny isn’t real!
    Of course the easter bunny isn't real. a 6 foot tall rabbit that poops painted eggs and candy?
    Santa Claus though, that's a different story. I never stopped believing in you big guy! Just get me another DiRT game for Christmas!
    My grandad shot the Easter bunny a couple of years ago. Long story short there was 15 adults crying with laughter and 5 children crying because the easter bunny was dead
    All this time I thought @RallyDriven was a farmer, turns out he's actually a redneck.

    And what are you doing @Rallycameraman? This is the GOSSIP thread, not the FACT thread... 
    my grandad just really dislikes rabbits apparently, no matter how many children believe that said rabbit was the easter bunny
