A big part of Loebs success was that he was able to be contempt with good point scoring positions to save the championship. That way it was difficult to put pressure on Loeb, because You needed to put pressure regarding the championship, not only one rally. But shore, he had some cracks in his armour, tough very small and far between
Ogier is of a different type of psychology, much more like Walter Röhrl. Its not only about winning, its about humiliating Your opponents, and trying to beat them with minutes. This I really like, because it paints the profile of a very colorfull personality, but it will off course in some sircumstances be a weakness.
But the fact that Latvala is pressuring Ogier will get spiral starting. The reaction from Ogier is over driving a bit, wich loses him a bit of time, wich then can lead him to over drive a bit more etc. We are off cource talking about minute details here, and that is also why it is difficult for Ogier to be concious of it.
Lets hope this Latvala vs Ogier duell goes on for not only this rally, but a lot longer, and lets hope that some of the other guys reaches their level in a consistent manner. The cars are so similar now that it is possible to win in all of them, so everything is in place to create an exiting championshiphttps://www.facebook.com/noseendfirst?ref=hl#

Pfff,
Loeb won 78 of the 156 WRC rallies he enteres. That's 50,0%. That's not really being "contempt" with good point scoring.
To compare the Valentino Rossi has a winning-% of 33,9% - Michael Schumacher has a winning-% of 29,5% and none of them has ever been accused of being "contempt".
PS: And stop talking down to people as if you know more about rally than people in here.Supporting Ogier in the WRC & Ferrari in F1 & Ducati in MotoGP.

Has that changed? I can't find anything on rules (though my copy is from December, not the latest)?
45.3 START ORDER FOR SUBSEQUENT DAYS
45.3.1 The start order for the first section on subsequent second days shall be based on the classification at the finish of the final special stage of the previous day excluding super special stages if run at the end of the day.
45.3.2 P1 and P2 drivers
P1 and P2 drivers shall normally re-start as a merged group in reverse order according to their overall classification.
