Sordo will stay in M1 team for the tarmac rounds, right ?
Yes...until Ogier will also beat him on that surface, not easy but could happen ;)Quote:

Sordo has gotten dramatically better on gravel/snow over the last few seasons - I have been impressed. But he is not a world championship candidate like his sponsor, El Matador.
He would have won rallies, but was not allowed to. Sorry for him, and the for Citroen Manufacturers championship.
I think that if he had won once or twice his head would change, and he could have helped Loeb even better than he has.
WRC = 2 manufacturers
4 drivers
from 2 different countries...
Why does it have world championship status?
I'm just hoping that Citröen does'nt mind witch french-dude that wins.. But I have a feeling that Loeb need 1 more title.. Schumacher is still racing... lol
Bad news for Sordo but the fact is that Ogier has, so far this year, been a clearly superior driver. He won Portugal with impressive speed.
I can't think of any rally in his career that Sordo could have won without team orders, discounting Spain last year because I'm sure Loeb was just cruising to a safe finish, knowing that Dani wouldn't be allowed to win.
I belive the manufacturer thing will be solved soon, what comes to the drivers its a different case, the othes just have to try harder, but for us it looks good at the moment.Quote:
