Driving style evolution

[N.O.T]

Latvala does not count, its ok to lose from Latvala because he has the speed to do it, but losing to the rest is a bit of a joke especially Meeke.

So, on topic - what do you think Ogier drives like, is it RWD (Scandinavian style) or FWD (Loeb style)?

[N.O.T]

I do not care how he does it and most likely nobody does know how apart from Ogier.

We can of course turn philosophical and start spouting useless bull around like most of the times and pretend we know how and why...

but i would prefer this thread to die in a very violent way.

Anyone else?

I don't think Loeb's style is "FWD" style; but Ogier drives similar to Loeb, yes.

I don't think Loeb's style is "FWD" style; but Ogier drives similar to Loeb, yes.

Let me put it this way, it is obvious they have some difference in driving, in which driving "philosophy" belongs one or another? May be we should add also Makinen/Rohrl to the equation?!?

I believe Loeb and Sordo were the only ones who used 40/60 torque split on asphalt events in times when active diffs were used. That's closer to RWD than anyone else.

I wait for comments from paddon's coach!

Good idea.
You start.

Let me put it this way, you should add all champions into the equation when talking about "driving philosophy", but you should look for similarities rather than differences.
And if you can find this similarities, you are on to something.
