Looking at final results of this rally it is hard to tell if one should laugh or cry
A good performance from Loeb, again.
But, Rautenbach finishes the rally in 4th place and loses over 20 minutes to Loeb?? This is just pathetic, really shows how low the WRC can go... :(
pretty boring event.....things now look grim for the young kids at ford.....but they have plenty of rallies on their surface to come, they have to work hard to narrow the gap.
Great job by atko once more !!!! well done !!!
Yes, great win by Loeb. Very deserved!
And great job by Citroën with 3 cars in top 4.
And Red Bull are sponsors on the winning car in both WRC and PWRC. Great result for them as well.
Loeb is the first person to win Rally Argentina four times in a row.
The superspecial stage was fun to watch.
In 1985, during the "Golden Age" of Group B, the number four in Argentina was one hour back on the winner (ok, the rally had 2.5 times more stage distance), and that number four was multiple Safari winner Shekhar Mehta in a works Nissan. Perceptions of the highs and lows of WRC rallying tend to change with time...Quote:
