Memory can do trick on you.Surely he got lucky on that one (SS7).

But let's not forget he lost NZ by less by a second in 2007 because he was the caught by the rain and not Marcus.
Even worse: he lost Catalunya in 2003 to Pannizi because the unexpected rain played right into Gilles desperation gamble to use soft tires while everyone else used hard. That lost in 2003 cause him to not be crowned WC.

Remember, luck come and goes: overall it will even.

No, with all respects to Mr Loeb - historically he will be known as the best rallydriver ever. But also as the rallydriver who destroyed WRC.

Also the one that doesn't particurlarly care about the series he is destroying. A quote from Mr Loeb -


"Whether I’ve got eight, nine or 10 titles it doesn’t make a real difference to me at all. If I feel that I don’t want to carry on, it would be stupid to continue reluctantly.”

World Rally Championship - News - News Archive - Loeb: I just do the simple things

Why would he continue if he doesn't want to? Because it will be bad for the sport?

He can make his own decisions. I hope he stays for one more year.

Is PP2 late or something?

Now it's time for Panzerplatte 2 :bounce:

sport is fu@#d by the impotence of Ford and their management to be serious at drivers choices,and their strategy at rallies.
Is not Loeb fault if they are playing like amateurs.Is not Loebs fault if Petter and Jari after 10 years at non stop wrc entry they can t finish a single rally with 4 wheels in the fiesta.Is not Loebs fault that they can t setup for a single rally their fiesta proper.Again in Germany soft setup for Jari and wrong tyre choice for the 10th? time this year.
Would you all prefere to have for champion Jari or Petter with these performance they show this year?You really prefere this instead of Loeb even if it is for 9th time? I dont.I want the champion to deserve the cup.
Ιn many sports there are athlets that have dominate for years championships.They didn t destroy their sport.Simply they raised the level.(Schumacher,Rossi ie)
Don t moan about Loeb,better thank God that we have the opportunity to see his perfection.

Sordo stopped AGAIN on Panz stage..

Has to be more then a puncture if he's stopped... on Arena Panzerplatte 2
