I refer of course to 9xWRC Sebastien Loeb. The greatest rally driver in
history, and in my opinion arguably the greatest driver in history, full
stop.

The WRC will be a shadow of its former self without him.
Chapeau Sebastien!

the WRC has been a shadow of its former self for so many years already, that
the Rally GB can pass by completely unnoticed in the UK now says alot for its
standing, much to Loebs disappointment Id reckon as its taken away the
competitive edge by having so few manufacturers + drivers taking part against
him meant he was a giant of a driver among pygmies

What a load of shite.

Loeb beat Colin McRae
Loeb beat Marcus Gronholm
Loeb beat Richard Burns
Loeb beat Petter Solberg - who still remains the only man to take a title
from him.

All world title winners, and all beat people like Carlos Sainz, Juha
Kankkunen and Tommi Makkinen. I'm sure they'd all think of themselves as
pygmies.

Loeb beat them all, repeatedly and comprehensively.

He is one of the greatest drivers of all time, without a doubt. It
doesn't matter that rallies are no longer 5 days long. It's immaterial.
His fitness, professionalism and speed would ensure that he'd win anyway.
