    A team, between driver and co-driver, it's like a marriage. Problems we resolved at home, not in front of televisions cameras.
    To me it is simple: Sebastien Loeb like driver Sebastien Loeb like person

    I don't know what makes you folks happy??? If the media asks the reason for their off, what should Loeb have done ?? Lie ??

    I have to admit I haven't watched every single piece of footage from Japan but I've seen two different interviews conserning their mistake and in either one of them, Loeb wasn't nothing but a gentlemen, towards the interviewer and his co-driver Daniel Elena.

    Jeez....

    You people are insane

    If Loeb had made a driving error and they would have asked Daniel about it, what do you he would have said.... "Ask the driver"

    In all of their time together that makes the score what?

    Daniel 1
    Sebastien 6 or 7?

    Sebastien was obviously upset and frustrated that it wasn't HIS mistake that put them out of the rally but at the same time I think he is smart enough to realize he has made more mistakes to cost Daniel rallies than Daniel has cost him.

    Drivers by their nature are egotistical, this was simply getting to see a bit of that side of Seb.

    SO I agree, meh.

    (if anyone is interested, in the next to last Rally America championship event there is a spot of incar that shows the driver correcting the co-driver on the note as the co-driver is late before they go off (they finished the stage with little to no damage))

    I thought the opposite tbh.. Put yourself in Sebastiens shoes.. wouldnt you have been be a tad peeved? I think I would have been too.. Is it wrong to see the human side? I dont think so..

    As Josti says.. At least he didnt thump Daniel as per Delacour..

    I think Seb's words weren't deserved by Daniel, I don't remember Elena blaming Loeb bitterly in front of the cameras when the driver did a mistake.

    Exactly, I dont also see anything strange in the whole case, Loeb just told what did happen, when he was asked.
    Seems that the people here is a bit too sensitive, poor co-driver

    Most time the media ignore the co drivers. They go straith to the drivers with the microphone and camera. So the dirver can do his words and explain his sight of the accidents.
