Loeb is going to win the title because:
-Mikkos' engine expired in Argentina
-he was gifted points in Poland by Citroen drivers
-he was gifted a win by Sordo in Spain
-there was no team orders in Ford team (Italy)

And remember that C4 is better car than Focus (every driver who have driven both cars admit that).

And hey, Loeb is already a 5 times world champion - it means something. I expect him to win his 6th title in fight on stages - not thanks to questionable 'tactics'.

I still keep fingers crossed for Mikko. However it seems unlikely now... :(

If the champ is to be decided on the stages, the 2009 verdict look like this:

Loeb 88 stage wins
Mikko 51 stage wins.

:D

The champ is usally on top or close. 2006 was different due to Loebs abscence from the last 4 rallies

I wrote on stages and not by number of stages won.
Was Loeb faster in Poland and Spain than other Citroen drivers on stages?? They were told to let him past.

If you ensure me that they were going flatout on all this stages and doesn't count sss - it could mean something. But drivers preserve tires, back off, meet wild horses...

Lets look at GB stats:
Loeb - 9
Miko - 7
Based on splits it would be 8 to 8 if not the open bonnet.


And if we taking about stage wins - do you know Markku Alen?

ah great the crybabies have started.....move along there is nothing to see here.

As much as I would have wanted Mikko to win the title, I agree with N.O.T.
Mikko had his chances but Sebastien won, that's it. Next year please!

exactly, no point to whine, every year comes a new chance to beat Loeb or who ever is the current champ.

Now is not the time to look back in anger at WRC 2009.

Latvala proved that if he stayed on the road what a good driver he can be. :)
Sordo proved that he could have won a rally if it was not for team orders. :)
Loeb achievd his 50th WRC win in Cyprus. :)
Ogier proved that he is a replacement for Loeb by coming 2nd in Greece. :)
Petter Solberg might be winning next year now that his in a better car. :)
