the returning of kkk to the races

[Ford Capri 2.8i]

the 4 times world rallying champion Juha Kankkunen is returning to the races as the following official statement

Four-time World Rally Champion Juha Kankkunen, with co-driver Juha Repo, will contest the 2005 Dakar Rally for Volkswagen.

The two Finns will line up at the start with a Race-Touareg for the first time at the FIA World Cup finale, the UAE Desert Challenge, between the 11th and 15th October in Dubai.

As a result, in addition to Jutta Kleinschmidt (2001) and Bruno Saby (1993), Volkswagen’s driver squad consists of a third former Dakar Rally winner (1988).

"We are extremely proud and happy that such an experienced driver decided to join Volkswagen”, explains Kris Nissen, Volkswagen Motorsport Director.

"With the strengthening of our excellent driver squad by the addition of a four-time world champion we have made another decisive step in our preparation for the 2005 Dakar Rally.”

Juha Kankkunen, who has already completed his first test together with co-driver Juha Repo in the Race-Touareg, has high hopes:

"During my first test in Turkey I was able to form my first impressions of both the team and the Race-Touareg. It was a very good start to our relationship. I was pleasantly surprised just how well the Race-Touareg handles. We want to learn at the rally in Dubai and fight up at the front during the Dakar Rally.”

IMO kkk will do a great job once when rallying he was very good with the race strategies depending on how the rally was developing.......he also was very brilliant when competing the safari rallye which he won in several time...in conclusion, he was very intelligent when planning each stage in each rally, and apart from good driving skills on gravel(kkk has been one of the best drivers ever on gravel), the intelligence is very important in order to get the finish line with the car in good conditions in each stage of any dakar edition

back on topic then! Sorry to side-track your topic Ford Capri...

firstly,....i leave in TTs and Jabbas´s hands......if the moaning of the other members about my topic has got some sense or not.......once i dont see any reasons of critisize my topic

Firstly.... kkk is a world famous nickname of Juha Kankkunen and it isnt invented by me.....

secondly....Juha is a legend in rallying terms(he is alongside with Tommi Makinen the only person who has taken 4 world rallying championships)...and one of the best rally drivers ever in the history of rallying,..as a result i see interesting his return of the racing world once he has been without taking part in racecars for 5 years approximately

thirdly...the return of kkk is interesting once he has taken part only in one edition of the Paris-Dakar and he won it(alongside Ari Vatanen there musnt be many drivers who have achieved this goal)

and i think that this is the proper section to get this piece of news.......i leave the moaning of other people in TTs hands and Jabbas hands...simply....i got my reasons to present this topic...............
