sabine is the same - she is buckwild, and loving it....... haha love'em rough!
You prefer WR to PL because PL spun his tires? WR's great talent does not diminishes PL's talent, me thinks.

no, they are both great drivers. i like the rebel in rohrl. watch his videos, he doesn't wanna talk. he wears the corporate cap, reluctantly. it's cute to watch.

FYI for those interested in the book, it can be bought for about $10 less (including shipping) if you go through Amazon UK vs Amazon here in the US. Don't ask me why because both get shipped from vendors in the UK.
