I was Colin's fan. But anyway he is my second best - so I think it is possible next year. Peugeots are in other league for now. Also whatch out for my man Marrko Martin he beat him in Sweden. Citroen needs development on the gravel so this is what they must do this year.

I'd put a bit of money on Loeb actually, the lads got a lot of talent - perhaps more than colin.

Loeb'll come in second, but the Grönholm/206WRC combo looks simply unstoppable. Two rallies now he's simply dissapeared over the horizon!

Difficult to tell until we see McRae and Citroen on a gravel event, but it's tough to bet against Gronholm on the evidence so far

What are you people on? of course Gronholm and Peugeot are good but the points system has been changed so reliability will win the championship this year. I think this is the most open championship for years. Gronholm, Burns, McRae and Sainz. one of these will be champion.

Well, if reliability will decide the championship, Colin's well and truly ****ed.
Burns won in '01 on consistency, but has been garbage in the Pug. Sainz? C'mon, say it with me. Loeb. Lo-eb... It's not hard! C'mon, you can all do it! The kid's the real deal. This is his first full season and already he's got two (arguably three) victories, all on rallies with very diverse surfaces! |

I think Loeb is the future at the moment. Bucketloads of talent. Probably needs a tad more experience, but I see absolutely no reason why he cannot challenge this year.

Hey guys, don't forget Marrko Martin - he was very consistent last year ! He sure will be a contender for the Title. Loeb - he is good on tarmac - snow - nothing so impresive. Gravel - we must to wait ....

This will be Colin's last chance to win the WRC title in a Citroen. Only signed for this season, so he will be flooring it this year.

Loeb all the way. I'm under the impression that he'll be great in gravel as well as on tarmac. Maybe not the best, but certainly good enough to keep him well in the points. Just get Gronholm out of that bloody Peugot...

Well, Loeb got a huge endorsement to win the WRC by teammate Carlos Sainz.
