Rally GB 2007 - official thread

I read the final official classification on the official site of the rally
http://www.walesrallygb.com/document...fter_Leg_3.pdf

and beside the Loeb's name, there is a star saying that there is a subject to the result of a complete engine inspection...

Is there any problem with the legal of Loeb's C4 engine???

Or sheep and goats. better traction anyway...........

Congrats Sebastien and Daniel.

No exuces this time. Marcus' title was lost to an error in Ireland. No bad luck, just a driving mistake which happen in rallying.

Sebastien achievement is something only a few rally drivers can ever get and the records are still left open. He is among the rally legends already :up:

Next year is going to be very interesting. At the start of this season I could have said he would just cruise to to his fifth title. But nmow I'm not so sure anymore. Well, I'm sure he won't be just cruise to the tile.

Standard practice, the FIA inspect after events and as he has won the drivers championship they will have a poke about. I would be gob smacked if something was found.

I was once told that it is miles easier to make a car that performs well on tarmac fast on gravel then the other way around.

It seems to be matter of taste how one spells out the reason for Marcus' lost championship. In one sense Marcus' lost due to his mistake but that is only because he gave so many points away from tarmac. Marcus would have needed at least 2 less dnf' to Seb in order to catch the difference done in asphalt.
