although the winner of the world rallying championship during this year could be quite clear for members(for me its almost as clear that Sebastien Loeb is going to be world champion as Michael Schumacher is going to be the formula 1 champion), i decided to post this topic in order to see the point of view of the other members about their next world rally champion after the German rally
IMO Sebastien Loeb is going to win the championship so far for many reasons:
Firstly: once it has an advantage of 29 point in front of Markko Martin(it means quite almost an advantage of 3 rallye wins)
Secondly: there are 2 tarmac rallyes left, Catalonia, and Corsica, and for me during this year Loeb is the best rallying driver so far(for instance during this decade Panizzi and Loeb have been the best drivers on tarmac indeed), and this year i see the lack of motivation of Panizzi and the failure of the Mitsubishi
Thirdly: the main rivals of Loeb, Gronholm, Solberg, and Martin, arent getting some regular rally finishes due to their spins, the mechanical failures......whereas Loeb rarely has an accident, and he is very intelligent (perhaps the most) when taking risks
Fourthly: The Xsara seems the best set up car in this championship, and a very reliable car as well
Fifthly: once considering that Sainz is not going to reach the same number of points as Sebastien(i see quite uncertain to be honest), i see that Sainz finishes the rallys regularly, as a result, Solberg, Martin, and Gronholm has got more difficulties to reach the same number of points as Sebastien
Lets see whats your point of view about the end of the championship, i hope that your opinion is not as clear as mine“s, otherwise the topic will be useless, and id feel sorry
