I am glad more and more people realise this. loeb is one coward and this time he fell in his own trap. he embarassed himself in the worst possible time.
overall the score this year is 2-2 with Ogier being younger, having a better car, far more testing and commitment... i cannot see why you want to diminish Ogiers title that much... i think it is still not worth much but not to the point you are going.
You do not try to release the pain from your heart... that is a bit worrying i must say.... but it is still early so there is hope... i believe you can do it... when you are in distress about Loebs numbers just look at this picture.

Sounds promising:
“The positive feedback from our TV partners and fans after the live broadcast of the Rally Finland in August and the large interest in the broadcast of the Rallye de France affirms our plan to provide regular live coverage of the WRC in the future. Plans are currently being made for the live broadcast of at least eight rallies in 2014"
Wow, that sounds really great :)

Do like the sound of that! :bounce: :bounce:
I guess all we can do is spread the word about it and let every source that needs to know that we want it!

Yes, Loeb dominated in great company in his early titles, but later the competition was rather "weak". Which of course doesn't underestimate his abilities, but was easying him. For me the real heroes in Rallying are in Group B era, with all the challenges they were facing with the machinery. Some of them payd with their lives, R.I.P. Who can forget Mikkola's Ouninpohja's record in '85, Rohrl's Monte Carlo victories with different teams, Vatanen with all his wins and fights. For me the best of Loeb this year was Monte Carlo when he "got into the game" after first stage win of Ogier and his Pike Peak race, wow, just wow.

I wonder how someone can get that much pleasure out of stating the same point over and over and over again. I really do.
It actually feels like a little kid imitating you, you know, like kids do. It's funny at first. Then it gets annoying, but the little kid still finds it funny.

i see it more like a tuition class, when the little ignorant kids have questions the master teacher must answer them...each and every one indivudually so they feel special in their little hearts.
