[WRC] 73. Secto Rally Finland 2024

How is he playing with anybody's head when he turns up to every round? Come off it!

He really doesn't care for the titles. He's got 8, a 9th is just stats.

Matters to Toyota however.

"Ogier doesn't care about results" ... Sure

It's good for him to stick to the story, rather than saying options in his contract are being triggered by Toyota because he's got ineffectual team mates.

You can tell from this article he's really motivated to get that 9th and be level with Loeb means a lot to him: https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/point...of-the-season/ Sure, sure sure sur su

Isn't what I said.

A contract is a piece of scrap paper for Ogier. If he wants to do the rest of the season, he will. If he doesn't want to do it, he won't. What is Toyota going to do, fire him? Yeah, right.
He will do it, because he wants to go for another title, as the conditions are right and as he already stated. It's clear since quite some rallyes.

OK plenty for me to consider there thank you.

More like in WRC drivers are more likely to crash or suffer from road changes due to cleaning or rain. If you add 5 extra drivers, things like road cleaning or "stealing" points would be even worse.

Also remember that Loeb won championship as a "part timers" due to injury as well.

he had an injury,and you name him a partimer when he won this years championship
The rest championships doesnt tell you something.
no he wasnt a partimer,he was injured and he didnt choose it instead of a partimer.

One question is whether he would be consistent in a Hyundai. The other is how fast he really is, Sesks was the only point of reference this year and was better.

in his home rally.
Just imagine Sesks to compete Adrien in asphalt Monte.

Neuville/Tanak/Fourmaux would be strong team. Evans could be available for M-Sport, I would not be surprised if Toyota would replace him with Pajari for next year.

I also think that he would fit there well but that would close the doors for Oliver. He is one that truly deserves a seat in Rally1 car so for that reason I would see him in Hyundai and Formoux and Sesks in M-sport.

The argument was that Ogier fighting for title without starting in all rounds is something new due to lack of competition.

Loeb won the championship while not driving all rounds decade and a half ago. So nothing new. Both Loeb and Ogier are great drives which is the main reason they can achieve this.

Arguing how it happened is pointless in this context.
