Lol. Us Brits, who are not very bright eh!
Coming from the fella that has slated and written off the team that has won its second rally on returning to the sport, and is now leading manufacturers championship.
I'm guessing a certain team principle that has won four world championships and seems to be making the correct decisions running a world rally team, just might be a little bit more intelligent and qualified to be a good judge of who to employ, than someone who may just about be qualified to type drivel on his computer/laptop/device using both hands instead of the one . . But fear you may only be capable of stabbing at it one fat finger at a time

no you are not very bright... to put it gently.
Toyota are getting carried by tanak... their car is trash.
When Latvala was in VW he was easily 2nd in the championhsip and mikkelsen 3rd... where is latvala now and last year if toyota is so much superior ? where are the other drivers with such a superior car ?
Tanak carries that worthless village team... where was toyota without him ?

Latvala was fighting in the top last year, then came tech. issues and this season...who knows, probably his head. You will always be saying that, maybe just for trolling and irritating people, but deep down you know, that a car taking almost 4 consecutive wins.... its not just about the driver.

Signing Meeke can be risky but any of the drivers you’ve mentioned is far from Meeke raw speed; we keep complaining about how disappointing the drivers level sometimes is (behind the top 3 or 4) but Meeke is one of the few able to fight for the win in any event, which is great for the series. Besides, Makinen is not Matton and if Meeke starts behaving wildly it won’t probably take long to show him the exit door.
If Abu Dhabi stays, Citroen will likely have a 3rd car with a decent driver running most of the season (Al Qassimi has been doing only 4 events per year); if not, then it may be just a 2 car team, but a real strong one, with 2 of the current top 5 WRC drivers.Rally addict since 1982

There is actually some fact to this, without Tänak they would not have a single win this year and Lappi and Latvala combined would not have as many fastest stage times as Neuville and Ogier have on their own, I`m not saying the car is bad, it`s definitely not, but I wouldn`t say it`s by far the best either, the main difference seems to be Tänak and this is something he started to show last year in M-sport as well..

Yes us Brits are not very bright. By the way, that world wide web that you're using to communicate with us thickos on, British invention. And the telephone wire that you're internet is connected to, oh . . British invention.
And, maybe, you watch rallying on your television . . . Guess what! Oh, you might be sitting in a house, held together with cement, which is . . Yes you've guessed it. And when it gets dark, you might want to turn that British invention called a light bulb on.
And, just for sick dogs like you when you're feeling ill, thank the Brits for the antibiotics that help you feel better.
Looks like they changed to this link (live now) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63ER-3Nl9ac
