    of course we had some other autistic boys over the years saying crap about THE GREATEST DRIVER OF ALL TIMES but probably they overdose on anti depressants right now...
    Loeb won because citroen applied team orders to his team mates
    Loeb won because he had tailored for him cars
    Loeb hadnt got good competition at his era.
    Loeb won because he was at the team with the biggest budget.
    Finally KKK has won with most different manufactures.

    Tanak this year is in many ways similar to Neuville last year. Fastest but also trying just a bit too much resulting in small things that in the end cost a lot of points.

    This year Neuville "relaxed" in a good way and is not making unnecessary mistakes, the only ones are GB and Finland. Sometimes the pace just isn't there from the car (Corsica, GER, FIN). He is on completely different level mentality-wise than last year. Ogier has POR, GER, TUR mistakes.
    Which is why I think they have about same chance going to AUS (due to start position).

    What I don't like is the double-standards in relation to Tanak. Last year everyone agreed it was Neuville's own fault he didn't win the title.
    This year Tanak is always "unlucky". Sure sometimes he is, but looking at the bigger picture over multiple rallies it's not without reason.

    If you try to look at it without fan- or anti-fan glasses there is little difference between Neuville in 2017 and Tanak in 2018. Just that one is more popular among fans than the other. I don't really have a preference as a fan, but as usual I feel the need to balance the one-way comments.

    its not a double standard, its the difference

    has Tänak made any stupid driving errors this year like Neuville did last year ?

    NO...that is the biggest difference.

    It is double standard and you are certainly not qualified to tell the difference

    Tanak this year mistakes:
    Sweden
    Sardinia

    Borderline:
    GB (lower setup than anyone else, 42s lead)
    Spain (33s lead and big cut)

    Loeb was and is a fantastic driver, not only in rally, but also in racing.

    if he needs another challenge, the logical step be endurance racing. But would be cool to see him in formula 2, to se if he mastered single seaters as well.

    But I think he feels he still has something to prove in Rally Cross. But driving rally cross, he can not use the tactician Loeb, the starts are too important.

    Winning in WRC from 2002 till 2018 is extreem. And this year in a car that no-one seems to master has to be embarrasing to the drivers in Citroen!

    I would like tanak to win it... it does not matter for me if Ogier or Neuville win it... i dislike them the same for different reasons...

    plus this years championship is garbage when a semi retired white hair old dude returns in a shit car that has not won the whole year and ridicules you like some dog waiting on death row in some chinese restaurant...
