DL:
That is good isn’t it? You don’t want somebody dominating the sport like Sebastien has. That makes it exciting and I hope it continues right to the last round because that is what it needs.
Crash.net:
Do you think Mikko could potentially beat Sebastien this year?
DL:
Yes, it would be nice to see. The Ford is definitely a good car. They are both obviously top drivers and it will be an interesting fight. But you know what rallying is like. You need a bit of lady luck on your side. I have been in that position before and when things are going right it is good and when they are not it is hard. I wish them luck.
Crash.net:
Sebastien’s record over the years is brilliant. What makes him so successful?
DL:
It has got to be his driving style. It is so neat and tidy - so precise. He obviously bonds with the car so well and it is just such a hard combination for his rivals to beat. He makes so few mistakes. I have not really known anyone like it. There is the Mitsubishi WRC car here and Tommi Makinen comes to mind. But Tommi was an aggressive driver and he did make mistakes, whereas Sebastien doesn’t do that very often - and is then very hard to beat.
