    The only man ever to beat Sebastien Loeb to a world title. That has got to be worth something.

      @@strahinjastevic7480 that is just the proof how good Loeb is. Starts winning world titles in his second season and does that for 9 years in a row until he decides that it is enough. What a legend, but beating him in his first full season is still quite an accomplishment

    Petter Solberg's co-driver at this time was Phil Mills. Phil Mills is also the voice of your co-driver in DiRT Rally 2.0. This means I've been hearing the same voice that read pace notes to Petter Soldberg himself!

      @@LSchelvin71 every company has own strategies. Subaru till today having a big marketing campaign from back in the day. Subaru was wining mainly because of PRODRIVE from UK who was making their cars. Just like Toyota wining now because of Tommi Makinen who is responsible for toyota WRC. It takes a lot of money, subaru meant to be back however their engine blow and old one is not strong enough to compete.
