Well, both Hirvonen and Duval were faster on tarmac in the same car, so that's a clear indication that Latvala is really poor on tarmac.Quote:

Last year Latvala was faster than Hirvonen on 2 of the tarmac rounds but he was still slow. After all Loeb, Sordo and PSolberg were a lot faster than him. And the comparison with Duval last year is unfair. The guy hadn't driven a WRC car for a year and yet he was on par with Latvala. Nomatter how you twist and turn it Latvala is slow on tarmac - the guy hasn't got a single tarmac podium in a sport that has only had 2 manufacturers for the last 2 years - that says it all.Quote:

Big differences in the current homologated diffs respectively Ford and Citroen.
Latvala is not very fast on tarmac but it's good to get facts right before posting negative things. Latvala got his first WRC podium on tarmac (Ireland 2007).Quote:
