Even in the dominant polo he was never a real contender for the title.

I always wondered why people have given latvala so much credit and continue to do that. There has not been one year in his carreer where he has actually delivered what he is paid to do. He has, except in a few rally's, never been anywhere near consistent, either being slow or crashing.

He was called crashvalla when he was still driving the ford, and nothing has changed now 10 years later.
While this is true, he has also got 18 wins which shows he has had real, top level speed that few others have.

But booy does he like to crash as well.
