I sure am not gonna pay even to see my favourite driver drive a rally car because i know he's not going to be good at it, it's like asking any person on the street to drive the car.
That's why it's a very stupid idea coming from him. Cheap publicity is what he's trying to get at the expense of Michael.

I think you will find that in any carf a WRC driver and F1 driver will be quick, its just that I suspect it will be easier to throw a WRC at the scenery.
As regards Micheal saying Le Mans etc are dangerous didn't he come to F1 from the Mercedes sportscar programme?
