    He is a top driver for sure, it was quite a surprise he was so high up in Mexico, even it was a new rally for him, I think he will be right behind the works guys in rallies more familiar to him.

    So long as he cuts the silly mistakes he had last year...but so far the signs are positive.

    Ogier was in Mexico 2008 with Citroen C2 S1600 when he was doing JWRC.

    And with a exceptionally good performance if I don’t remember it wrong, it really shoved his potential.

    Yes, but I mean with a rally car, to have usable notes from previous rally.

    I'm not so sure he's quite up at Loeb's level at least for a few years yet. he's got potential though
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    Quesnel was surely impressed with him after the rally!

    Well Citroen C2 S1600 is a rally car ... and even he was not with WRC in 2008 he still had done this event in competition speed so he had an idea of the stages.

    Never the less it was a impressive performance from him

    Talking Why would Ogier change of name?

    Yes you are right Pino, Ogier he´s fast. But let we hope that there more younger drivers get the same chances in factory teams such as Ogier has with Citroën!
    For example,
    J. TUOHINO
    P. ANDERSSON
    A. MIKKELSEN
    B. SOUSA
    J. HANNINEN
    K. MEEKE
    G. WILKS
    and, and, and much more!!!!!!
