Humiliation? It's no shame to lose to Loeb.
Indeed, and I am afraid the championship is again for Loeb. There are 3 tarmac rallies waiting.Quote:

enough with the bitter comments though...i am not ready yet.....plus in 8 stages a lot can happen.
Is the rally wet today as well ???
I think you're jumping to conclusions. Every driver wants to win always and since Finland is one of the only two big rallies that Loeb hasn't yet won (plus with only three non-Scandinavians ever to win it), he's understandably keen to take the win - no matter what happened in Turkey.Quote:

Only a few stages left, if he can only take around 3 sec per stage he'll need to win ever single stage now or get Loeb to make a spin. In the end, aside from the pride, getting 2nd place won't be a big blow for his championship.
