I guess he is deaf to criticism...well that is his name anyway..
Sordo put in a mega drive this weekend, for sure. To be fair, I tend to rate Sordo rather lowly, and I frequently look at him as an eternal has been with no further potential, but every single time he's in that i20 he surprises me.

In the past two years he's really been competitive on every outing in the i20, particularly this year. Every time I don't believe in him he goes out and keeps within touching distance of, or even makes it to, the podium.

As "gifted" as this win was, I've gained a lot of respect for him after today. I hope he stays for a few more years, he's still got some nice potential (and is such a likeable guy too!)
