[akka]

should have had wall in at the start for the first 34 laps and give steve the rest he was going well

 

[Quasi]

Yeah, can't recall the last time I saw Steve drive so aggressively, through the field. It was really good to see, but could he maintain that attitude every race of the season?

 

[akka]

would like to see steve back full time but hope they keep scotty I think its only a matter of time
till he breaks through for a podium.

 

[Monkeyboy]

Maybe having Ambrose with all of his experience would help Pye improve his qualifing and seriously push for a podium. He really doesn't have that experienced person next to him who is currently driving.

 

[Gerry]

I think Steve has put himself well up the top of the "must have co-drivers" for next year.
In reality, I can't see anyone giving him a full time gig in a decent car.

 

[Poita]

I think Steve driving reflects the fact he is no longer trying to protect the teams budget, some of the best driving I have seen from him.
