Because Neuville is a Princess. Ogier is a King.Quote:

Are you a Trump supporter who doesn't believe a fact should get in the way of a good rant?
Wuff1 is right. No matter how good driver Paddon is, he has "very big mouth". I have noticed it many times during last 3 or 4 years. Not only in case of talks about Neuville. It is his first attribute which characterize him best.

"a big mouth" can be a way of manipulation as well.
Wuff1 is wrong and so are you. Paddon talks directly without much of a public-relations filter, true, but he has NEVER said anything arrogant about how he could win everything or anything.Quote:

That's not to say he hasn't said some brutally honest stuff about other drivers that nobody else would have said, and got in that public argument with Ogier that one time, but that's not the same as arrogantly thinking or saying you are better, and I'd argue that having some honest characters is good for the sport.
