Latvala is the best driver by far and drives one of the newest cars accepted by the championship - which is AWD vs mostly RWD cars.
Dumas is a good asphalt rally driver but not on Latvala's level, and drives a 70's Porsche. The only other drivers I recognize outside of the Historic championship bubble are Johansson (did few WRC events in the 2005 with private Impreza WRC), Tony Fassina (winner of WRC Sanremo '79 with a private Stratos, he's now 79 years old!).
Then there's Rosenberger and Madeira but they are not eligible because I guess they drive too modern cars (and they were miles behind Latvala anyway).

That guy has a small collection of cars, and he is driving them all (together with his son):

Speaking of historic cars, two weeks ago I was spectating the second round of European Historic Rally Championship, Vltava Rallye in Czech Republic. On rough and damaged tarmac some of those historic drivers were driving very carefully, but on the hairpin bends in the mountains those cars looked and sounded very good. Unfortunately, there was not much fight, because Latala won all but one stage
Here is my short photo gallery from this event:

Latvala won 5 stages out of 8 at Rallye d'Antibes but then retired on the 9th and final stage for electrical issues, he had 1m 06s gap on the 2nd.
The stages are not the issue, the huge distance between them is. They didn't do more km's of SS here, just more road sections. Move the stages closer together and everything is solved.
