    with everyone on full attack he cannot do that.

    Monte is a shitty event if the conditions are mixed then it is all about tyres rather than driving, he can even win if he gets his tyre choices right for every stage.

    If conditions are somewhat predictable i think he will be slower than Ogier and Latvala for sure, and if Mikkelsen pushes then he is going to be slower than him as well.

    Realistically Loebs opponents are his team-mates. His goal should be a top 5 finish and if retirements occur maybe a podium.

    I think he Will be in Top 3 for sure...he always was clever in tyre choice,he always was good in tricky conditions, even if he is not at is best,because of retirement,i think he Will be in top 3, and in this event the advantage of the polo is not so big due to the conditions of the rally,And the Ds3 seems better in the vídeos than last year,the engine seems more powerful

    Rally Monte-Carlo is everything about driving. Sure it could depends on tyres if you win or not but most of the time they all have the same tyres and then the boys will be seperate from the men. It's a special and beautiful event wich will never dies. Just a perfect start of the season.

    We will see how Loeb goes, it's just nice he's in the game one more time and maybe he could fight against the VW-boys. If not it's not the end of the world.

    Looking forward to the event & year, think we will have a great season with a better Hyundai i20 coming up, both regular Citroën drivers will make a next step (Meeke for sure) and also i think M-Sport drivers (include Bouffier on the tarmac-rounds) could be a suprise on some events.

    Heh, what retirement? i would call it retirement if he hadn't contest at all in recent years, like Schumacher who came back in 2010. im sure he will be still quick because he is the monte master and he has kept his hands warm in WTCC.
