+1 :up: Loeb might just be setting himself up for disaster here...
This season and next will make for a much more experienced JML and Ogier.... :D

[quote="N.O.T"]only once in spain...and he was still behind Loeb and just told them to not push him.... he never managed to be ahead of Loeb convincingly NEVER !!! a thing that Sordo does...

and what about gravel ???

a friendly advice...stop watching the sport...you do not learn anything from it, and you do not have a good perception of it either...[/QUOTE]

He will watch whatever motorsport he wants.
Why disrespect Sordo when he helped loeb and citroen to 3(or 4?) manufacturers championships?

And let's not forget who is a consultant for Volkswagen Motorsport.

Oh man, I make another mistake, :(

Only thing missing now is Ford announcing they´ll pull the plug out of Malcolm´s kitchen, and then next year would be fun-fun-fun.

that would be good news.

There is no say on that VW indeed gave him a 2 year contract but Loeb felt it was too less and signed a contract with Citroën for 2012 and 2013 is an option??

And he might not be racing next year - and if he is, it's only a handful of races. Gilbert would be worth £11M...
