Will it be 'fun' for him if he gets beaten and tarnishes his Monte legacy ?Quote:

Can't say I'm surprised. The WTCC is hardly a huge challenge - FWD saloon cars, with races over 20-30 minutes. Might be different if it was a 6/12/24 hour race in a 450BHP Sportscar.Quote:

you mean that Ogier and polo/vw with double budget is not competition for him?Quote:

The Loeb Love is still strong, I see. Well, we will never know how he would have stacked up against Ogier and VW, will we? Your hero "retired" before we had the chance to see...Quote:

so we saw who is faster and better overall,even when he was retired.
At previous years there is no question as you know.
LOL So much posts,tweets and news about it and some declare it a big comeback. It's will be an one off just to enjoy some competition in january. He will continue in WTCC, why would he return to WRC?
Loeb gave them too many beatings and most of them were on the head... so that excuses the memory loss... forgive them.Quote:
