  • Good article! He's never that outspoken really always like he watches what he says, very professional, but not arrogant.

  • @Will Rowlands Thanks very much! :) Yes, when you are listening him, you immediately think that "God, this man is so professional (or competent, ace, pro, etc)". He always focuses on his job, nothing else. That's the reason he became so successful. When I asked him about is there any RX tracks that he would like to see in the calendar, he answered he doesn't care, he is the driver, and if he wants to go to a new place he goes on a holiday! And that's Loeb. He drives the car where he has to, and wins. I think he is the character of an ultimate racing driver, and definitely one of the best ever!

    Some say that he has an own "style" (in a negative way) at giving interviews, but I didn't experience it at all. That's him, maybe some people don't like his "style", but that man is the pure, ultimate professionality in racing.

    And for sure, his favourite (most used) phrase is "for sure" :D Vettel: "Honestly"; Ekström: "I mean"; Schumacher: "Obviously"; Raikkonen: "Bwoah"; Loeb: "For sure". All of them are great drivers, characters, personalities, and these phrases are their kind of trademarks as well!
