...and will be a PR disaster should it actually take place. Sponsors or not, most will be very gun shy of bad association which could turn on a dime.

The subtle nuance of the language is very telling.

Ponieważ zdjęcia nie pokazują w sposób jednoznaczny, że Robert rzeczywiście zasiadł za kierownicą rajdowego auta, postanowiłem tę informację zweryfikować.

Good to see Kubica behind the wheel (of something) again. Kubica and Blazusiak are my wifes favorites.

On the other hand, I cannot wait for the season to start this week. Ferrari sandbagging...redbull dominance in 1212...Mclaren hitting the deck running this year...time to put up...

You're right about the whining. But sometimes they cheat, too. Ferrari says the Red Bull solution is something most teams considered. Not sure if a final decision has been rendered on whether or not Red Bull is legal?
