    Interesting. Loeb and Ogier don't trail brake? Anyone noticed that or got some insight?

    They don't give a shhhirt. They win titles.
    Although I am a fan of Tanak.. I still respect Loeb's attitude.. that he sets his style to the car and not the other way and moan about the bad car.
    Okay, he(Loeb) couldn't find his pace w Hyundai.. but it is another 10y old story with certain driver.
    It will be really interesting to see, what Abiteboul will achieve. Adamo was same style, but suddenly retired.

    From memory, Loeb was described as braking earlier than others but also getting off the brake sooner and accelerating earlier. This was especially good with active diffs but seems to be an efficient style in general.

    Oh man ...they sure give a shit about how they drive a car. They are athletes not kids on "Need for Speed".

    Oh it's the other way round, Mikkelsen claimed that he, Ogier and Loeb trail brake and the i20 didn't work with trail braking. Makes much more sense considering Neuville constantly adjusted the car on entry with the handbrake.

    It says Hyundai are joining forces with Alpinestars but weren't they already with them? or am I completely mistaken?
