    And on top - all of this while being a semi-retired 49 year old!
    If Loeb can do this now, this makes you understand how good he was in his prime. The Maestro

    dont know how old are you,but the older ones here we have witnessed his first years at wrc,and his performance against multiple world champions at this era.
    What he achieved vs world champions is mind blowing.
    A trully amazing talent.

    The first time I started following WRC was end of 2006, when Loeb had to miss the final 4 rallies and Gronholm was trying to win them all or almost to get the championship. He got 3x 1st and 1x 5th, and was not enough. I thought: how good is this Loeb guy, winning a world championship with 12/16 rallies run!

    However, that put the nine-time world champion first on the road for Saturday’s seven stages, and therefore at even more of a disadvantage to Mikkelsen who helped develop the Fabia RS Rally2 and has won the Azores twice before.

    But Mikkelsen’s victory bid would unravel on Graminhais 2 when, pushing hard, he hit a bank with the right-rear of his Škoda and caused damage. WRC2 driver Cais impressively won the stage, but more importantly Mikkelsen fell to 18.2s off the lead with just the powerstage remaining.

    Loeb was off the hook. Suddenly he was under no pressure, and the 49-year-old was clear to claim the 106th victory of his distinguished rallying career as well as the powerstage win.
