Default The WRC Champions in the future

Thats my question, who do you think that is going to replace when the current top rallying drivers such as Gromholm, Loeb or Solberg retire?

Here we go my list of possible candidates

- Daniel Sordo (IMO he has got a lot of potencial and he doesnt have accidents very easily; furthermore, he has quite a lot of support from the citroen sport and Carlos Sainz)
- Matthew Wilson (apart from his talent he has got a lot of technical support)
- François Duval (when he stops crashing he will be almost unbeatable in every type of road and condition)
- Julien Pressac (I think that the frenchman career could be very similar to Sordo or Loeb)
- Kris Meeke (very fast driver, and he will stop crashing even this year)
- Jean-Marie Latvala (he has got a lot of potential and quite a lot of experience already)
- Mikko Hirvonnen (he has got every ingredient, he is very fast, young, experience, and if we forget the subaru experience, its has a very good career
- Kosti Katajamaki (he´s already a finnish champion in a WRC, he is very good in the S1600, and he is still young)
- Per Gunnar Andersson (he is a very young one and very skillful in the S1600)

See what happens; on the other hand, I dont see being Chris Atkinson world champion in the future, and I dont see that the good teams considering the Gigi Galli´s skills although IMO if he had a very competitive car he would be a world champion
