In 2004 P. Solberg was clearly the fastest driver (50% more stage wins than anyone else). No title that year and 0 titles after that.

Nothing is certain about the future. Tänak is very clear about that himself and said so on interviews already last year. Being fast now doesn't quarantee future succes and being fast alone is not enough to get title.
