WRC Rally Funny interviews with Finnish drivers

[@buak]

-"It was raining, what kind of tires you had?" -"BLACK RROUND PIRRELLI"

[@lrayq6335]

that really got me ;D

[@mrc14_2]

those pirellis aint as round as his r's

[@MrMedalice]

Rallys original Kimi Räikkönen for sure.

[@MikkoRantalainen]

@@MrMedalice That's right. Juha Kankkunen has later explained that tyre choice is part of the rally strategy so, of course, he's not going to tell publicly which tyres he'll be using. Kimi once said about his race strategy that he'll be going to drive around the track when asked about it in the press conference.

Marcus Grönholm, the true finnish hero.

[@scottmeehan9611]

Marcus tommi kimi mika all give great straight to the point interviews. Must just be the finnish way. No bullshit just say what u thinking n hell to anyone who dont like it.

[@ivanmacgar6447]

Question out of curiosity: Given the long history/legacy/presence of Swedish in Finland, I know Swedish is an official language in Finland and even Finland has their own Swedish-speaker Finns, which I assume have mostly Swedish last names. Now, is it a thing Finnish-speaking Finns to have Swedish last names? I ask because Grönholm despite having a Swedish last name, his accent sounds REALLY Finnish.

[@urdad5824]

​@@ivanmacgar6447 im finnish speaking fin and my last name is swedish. It's not very uncommon to have a swedish last name, even if you only speak finnish. The last name doesn't really tell you which language you speak.

[@ivanmacgar6447]

@@urdad5824 thanks for the info. I expected it to be a bit more clear cut, but I get it. I currently live in Belgium (not a Belgian though) and here it's not uncommon to find Dutch-speaking Belgians with French last names or French-speaking Belgians with Dutch last names. Ofc not the most common thing, but it is a thing as well.

[@Harvey142009]

when you find out you're maailmanmestari (Finnish for world champion) and you react in the most Finnish way by not celebrating it like crazy let alone mention it. Finnish modesty, Finnish humility, Finland at its finest. In Finland its people let their work and results do all the talking, no need to toot your own horn. If foreigners mention a Finn's achievement so much at most the Finn would say 'I get that alot'. Never change, Finland and Finnish people, never change!!! The world could learn from Finland, its people, humbleness and sisu and letting your work do the talking.

It's interesting how your people don't brag. They're not chanting 'Finland/Suomi' a million times all day all night long unless if Finland wins. And if I asked you for example 'so how does it feel to have won for Finland?' you'd be like 'thank you, it doesn't change my life alot'. I know Finland and Finns let the work do all the talking. Being a F1 fan myself I noticed this is how Kimi Räikkönen is. A long long time ago, my country, the USA, had a President called Theodore Roosevelt, who famously said 'speak softly and carry a big stick'. Never underestimate the power of quietness and Finland is displaying this in buckets. Finland doesn't have to say anything, just do. :) Motorsports wise the USA isn't taking that award, this American has to award it to Finland for letting the work do all the talking and bringing the good results. And love your brutal honesty, you tell it like it is. And the humility (this is used in English speaking countries, I've heard that Finland refers to this same concept as modesty) you all have. Down to earth and not showboating the awards and good results. America and the rest of the world could learn from Finland with these qualities.

I feel bad for who ever did that guy laundry at 2:52.

Grõnholm was my first favourite Finnish racing driver and now I just can't wait to be introduced to a new Finnish racing driver, they're all hilarious. 😁 Glad to see Valtteri is keeping up the tradition. Who's next?

Marcus Gronholm really HATED the 307 with every fibre of his being 😂😂

[@efemji]

man, Marcus really hated that 307. i guess the downfall of peugeot is just inevitable

[@Dinoface96]

Just sad to think about it, From the 205T16 that was famously known to put an end to the Audi quattro dominance in the AWD system during the group.B era, to the epic comeback of Peugeot in the 206 and being so dominant during the early 2000, to a literal shitshow and a absolute joke of a 307.

[@Snarfie]

Not only him, Harri did too, it did have a lot of handling and power steering issues, not to mention Peugeot's idea of making it a 4 speed car and using the coupe version and not the hatchback like they did with the 206, it went better the next year when they changed the transmission for a 5 speed but that was when Peugeot and Citroen left wrc

Grönholm toki on ylivoimainen mitä tulee kommentteihin ja niiden hauskuuteen. Harmi, että Alén ajoi aikakaudella, kun vähemmän oli kamerat paikalla ja jos olikin, niin taltiointeja ei ole niin paljoa, mutta se vähä mitä on nähnyt, niin yhtä selvä kakkonen on Alén....ja loput tulee kaukana perässä...

What does Tommi mean the season was over from the first race? Was that when Toyota cheated with their turbocharger?

[@tiadaid]

Not the first race, but the first day of the Rally GB 1998. Makinen retired after his car hit a road marker, breaking his car's suspension. So he thought the championship was lost because Carlos Sainz was still running - until the very end.

[@TheVeyron623]

To provide some additonal info alongside that comment 10 months ago, the cheaty turbo was 1995.
