It seems to remain that way every year.

I know luck is a thing to be earned, but in Loeb's case there's an
overdose. He's got an especially good car. It just doesn't break.

Yeah. All we can hope is their team gets badly behind in a middle of
season. Kronos just can´t have all that money for developing a car
that Ford concern has.

My chances for third world title rely on Loeb's failure. And that has to
come fast. Otherwise difference grows too big and I can forget my title
chances. And wins don't do if Loeb is always second. That's the name of
the game. Gotta admit it. And that is an annoying thought.

Loeb doesn´t make mistakes. He´s as robotic as Michael Schumacher used
to be. Best car is a good help but he also seems to smell when it´s
time to push or when ease a bit. Worthy champion he is indeed. Of
course I´m hoping the battle goes on.

While talking about Kimi and Marcus, we could also mention Mika Kallio
who´s struggling in road racing (125 cc class).
