Just seen a tweet from M-sport that Ogier has won more rally’s already this year than last!
I did not know that. Impressive stuff from ‘the underdogs’... keep it up.
We've made fantastic progress with the EcoBoost-powered Ford Fiesta WRC this year. Four events into the season, and @SebOgier and Julien have already won more rallies than last year! Check out the highlights from our third victory of the year @TourdeCorseWRC #WRC #FordPerformance https://t.co/yDG8J5IbUL
Ogier is not only the best driver, he's also the smartest.
He left champions Citroen and went on to glory at VW which no-one expected. Then he switched to M-Sport which many thought stupid, and is doing the same.
He knows where is right for himself and no-one else should be second-guessing now.
Eddie, we know that you are a die hard M-Sport fan and that Ogier is no ordinary rally driver.
btw his last pure tarmac rally win before last weekend was in Corsica 2016.
It's interesting that since this new era of WRC MSport have won 8 rallies, Hyundai 5, Toyota 2 and Citroen 2. It doesn't look particularly flattering for manufacturers. It's probably the last branch of motorsport where a relatively small but dedicated team of people and top drivers can make enough difference to overcome budgets and resources of big teams. It's so rare these days that it should be appreciated.
I was trying to explain that it doesnt matter if the other teams 'target' the signing of Ogier in 2019 - he has always been smart and will be where he wants and suits him best.
And anyway I dont see anywhere better than M-Sport / Fiesta given his results there so far...

I’ve written a few words here about Seb Ogier’s performance in Corsica. I reckon he’s not far off being back to his brilliant, unbeatable best... https://t.co/OG99yOTaMT
