Petter with the Xsara was faster than Loeb by >10kph on the long straight in Rally Norway 2009. Didn't help him much. Loeb's comment was something like: My car isn't set up for top speed, but more to be fast out of the corner..

If the straight is long enough gr.N cars can go faster.. Top speed is no way to see what car is the quickest..
Never give up...

I believe Ogier as a better car than petter. In my opinion there is no way this new guy could be so fast with so little experience against Solberg. Lets see in Finland how close he is.

But i agree that Ogier in a Ford shoud be good to the WRC. But Ford has exactly what he worked to...Three gears are enough!
