Quesnel Vs Loeb

Seems like the two citroen bosses keep having digs at each other in the press :p

Face it, this Seb vs Seb is great for rallying.

If it was F1, the papers/forums/websites would be going mad about this story: the 7 time World Champion having his event 'ruined' by the boss, who has favoured the young upstart!! Sadly, it's only Rallying - and nobody cares........
It would be even better if Loeb did leave at the end of the season to join VW, then the story would simmer for a year while they test & develop the car.

All this story is good. As much speech about WRC - as good for the sport. That's we all want. :)

It shows bad loyalty to a company if after you retire from a senior position you criticise those who replaced you.

Agree, the guy should keep his mouth shut, or at least not comment how he whould do, the situation at Citroen is totally different now when the other driver has the courage to do it his way.

He sees what is happening. Now Loeb realises what's happening. I think he, like anyone, is entitled to his opinion.

Btw, I also think that it is not a coincidence that Ogier splits didn't work on last stage on Sat. Anyone found to be tampering with this kit, should be exclude from the event.

It makes things interesting. Gotta feel for Loeb who was 1st, 2nd and 1st on the road and still finished 2nd..a moral winner. Ogier is good but I think he still cannot do that.
Will be most interesting to see if Ogier can keep up on tarmac...no road tactic its level playingfield!

As to Loeb vs. Ogier. There will be a mental battle between the two. And let's not forget that Loeb was a gymnast. This is an advantage because in addition to balance a rally car he knows how to balance his own body floating weightless in the air. And this is what makes Loeb unique champion. Аnd last but not least - Loeb is noble and charismatic.
