Hats off to Citroen for winning the WRC manufactuors title and to Seb Loeb for winning the drivers title I knew it was gonna happen but the team made this possible. Thye had the best car most reliable drivers and each car has finished almost every rally. So once again congrats to Citroen.

Call me a front runner, but I'm a Citroen and Sebastien Loeb fan. I was pretty pissed last year when he lost a close driver's title to Petter Solberg. But as long as Peugeot doesn't win I'm happy.
BTW: Petter had a good run at the end of this year. He won a few straight there...
Gotta love the Xsara

Yeah, they were the most organised group this year, I mean look at this:
Ford - Never really knew what was going on for next season so could'nt make long term plans.
Peugeot - What a **** car! Sorry, but it is!
Subaru - Did well, but had a few problems at the start of the season which cost them.
Skoda - Errrrr, not much to say on that.
Mitsubishi - Just shows even champions cant win everything, whats happened guys?

Actually what did Subaru in was the summer catastrophe and Mitsu wasnt champions since the Makinen era and I knew they would suck b/c they had no drivers

My overview of the teams this season....
Ford: The engine in the Focus kept on failign whether oil pressure was down or the engine combusted somehow, I just always saw frequent engine problems
Peugeot: They say the 307 is better balanced than the 206, but seriously, Peugeot needs to keep testing that car out. They kept on having gear box problems which is also an issue.
Subaru: Well they did have a couple problems with water splashes and other junk, just bad luck I think. The Pirellis just don't do well on tarmac and Pirellli needs to be addressed to that problem.
Skoda: Did they even finish a rally? If they did, it was probably ifor like 1 or 2 points.
Miitsubishi: That new rally car needs a a lot more testing in order for it to be reliable, AND they need some decent drivers.
