WRC » Loeb beats Coulthard to RoC title

Gratz Loeb. Cheers from Poland.

Can anyone explain to me why britain had TWO TEAMS? Before anyone says "oh its at Wembley so we can have TWO or anything like that, no you cant.
No other country would be allowed TWO TEAMS!

Lets not even start about Coultit! he was an average at BEST F1 driver and how did he make the final?
HMMMMM lets see..............
He hit the barrier twice in the semi final which should have been two yellow cards according to the rules and should have disqualified him.

He hit the barrier in the X100 at the chicane bit (I have it recorded and have watched it several times) and he crashed into the barrier on the last corner and broke the front right suspension HOW THE HELL DID HE MAKE THE FINAL??

Desmolad, does it matter.

It all changed last minute as webber broke his leg so they had to change stuff around. The whole day was ace as I was there and much better then the tv.

DC was and is a great driver, its things like this that shows up talent! As you would of noticed the cars do make a difference to lap times and driver rsults but chuffed someone from GB could do so well and bring it right down to the wire

Great day, will go next year.

Because he was faster than the guys he was up against, thus making his way to the final, maybe? It's really not hard to understand! Well, for most people at least.

Good last race actually. Nice to see them both fighting for the win. Loeb capping off another great year.

Calm down there Desmolad it was just a bit of fun!!!
It entertained me all afternoon, and the several crashes and off-road incidents made it more exciting. Thumbs up to Race of Champions.

Well done to both Seb and the German team. As a Brit it wasn't the result i wanted to be beaten by a French man and the Germans at Wembley but it was a great day out and seeing Lewis blat his F1 car round topped it off - the sound of that thing is incredible!

I think some of the people above have forgotten this is a charity event... one of the Americans should have been given a penalty when racing Jensen but went through - race control said "we didn't see it" which sumed up the relaxed attitude to this end of year fun event.

This was my second year attending and i can't wait for next year [although i will be taking an extra layer of clothing as it was very cold!]

well done seb, and DC, what a swansong! the stadium was not very full of spectators, which is disappointing. another thing, a press release said that the "race" between hoy and lulu was called off because it was too dangerous for hoy, yet antony hamilton said, on tv, it was "political". i wonder which is the truth?

Desmolad, when the roc was held at the Stade de France from 2004-2006, i seem to remember team france having two teams, Team France and Team playstation france. I don't actually care how many teams each country has because it doesn't matter, its the fact that they all raced together for fun, and alot of fun it was. Agree with you Rich ard, fantastic way to end his career for DC, and to think he only missed winning it by 0.3 of a second.

The tv coverage was awful. Some nice moments, but overall, for me it's a no-go.
I zapped away after the Nations Cup.
Won't tune in next year.

franky. agreed. did you notice that everytime there was a 10 sec break, along came the ads, and several starts were completely missed. and as for amanda stretton, she didnt do her homework very well, and jardine would be commenting on a drivers style whilst the other driver was actually on the screen. pity eurosport wasnt involved this year!
