@Jadiel Fox happy to help :)

[@TakumiFujiwara80]

I don't understand how Kubica can crash it AFTER the end of the stage....

[@stevemcilroy9518]

Loeb always said, he is no quicker than any other driver. The difference is, he is smooth and consistent. I think he was being modest as he is ultra quick, smooth into and out of every corner, and a brave driver. perfect pairing, respect.

[@sota_59]

Elena said that first thing they noticed 2003-2004 that if they want to win title, they have to accept sometimes 2nd or 3rd places.

[@MegaVesper04]

I remember hearing a Colin McRae interview saying Loeb wasn't the fastest driver but, like you already said, he is smooth and drives consistently. Kinda like the tortoise, just keeping his pace steady while some drivers push too hard and go off or break their car.

[@captainwin6333]

Colin being a prime example.

[@mssmmgnn]

The fact, at least to me, is that exactly to be both smooth and consistent, above all you MUST be quick: I mean: you can act smoothly with steering and brakes only if you do the right thing in the right amount in the right instant... In short... if you are PERFECT. If your reflexes, are perfect, so to make all your acts perfectly phased together And that perfection has to last the entire track, on ice, on dry, in all situations. F. ex (talking about fwd, of course) when you have to kick the brakes before an hairpin, to make the car drift (I've tried, few times, on wet) I've noticed the most critical thing is exactly the instant you choose to do it, or better, you have to synchronize it with the steering stroke, otherwise "doesn't work", you'll go straight, ok; but isn't the same with a race trimmed car... hard suspensions doesn't "warn" you, when you're about to lose grip when you're on dry, letting alone on slippery... then, at that speed, really becomes matter of tenth of seconds; plus, is not the same in all conditions... ice, dry, dirt; and in this track there are almost all of them There's no parts on dirt, but that part on ice, and downhill, from 8:25 onward (he's going quite slow, and doesn't risk anything) shows effectively the situation he's managing with: more or less like walking on glass marbles. He has for sure the skill on ice typical in the Northern Europe drivers, but a bit the anger (a smooth kind of) of a Sainz or a Mikkola, too This is his winning asset: to have both those skills, and to know as well how to dose them

[@MegaVesper04]

It's easier to be smooth if you aren't going as fast though. Being smooth doesn't mean you are driving as fast. If a driver is driving at the same rate as others but taking smoother lines then ya, they would be the fastest for sure. Loeb and Ogier have set fastest stage times lots of times. It's not that they aren't fast, just that some drivers have shown more speed than them on some stages; however those other drivers haven't been as consistent or as ... smooth as maybe Loeb was or Ogier is. Other drivers make more mistakes and take less efficient lines at times. Being fastest is useless anyways if you can't finish the rally. Hence Colin McRae. RIP.

[@Panndaaaaaa]

***** He enjoys the view haha

[@knallpistolen]

+MaeIstr0m hehe, yeah :)

[@Multiac]

I am simply floored, he seems to be driving as fast as it is humanely possible throughout the video, but at the same time we never have the impression he is taking any risk; top security, it is a marathon not a 100 meter. Also, for my English speaking friends, if you listen when Elena says the condition of the road with wet (humide or mouillé), snow (neige), dry (sec). When he says sec, SB is just crushing the acceleration pedal like a maniac. WOW !!!!!!!

[@L.Kneemoy]

In my opinion Sebastien Loeb has to be the best rally racer of all time. He's won more then any other rally racer. He's just flat out nuts behind the wheel of anything with wheels. I love rally racing, wish it would someday come to America.... Thanks for posting, I enjoy the videos you post. Cheers!!

[@seanhornibrook]

17:55 WTF ARE YOU LOOKING AT?!?!?! How do you even have time to notice ANYTHING?? Excellent as always. Love watching Loeb.

[@DildorTheDecent]

probably looking at girls.

[@jordanversol2689]

I think he looking the rear left tire because of bumpys

[@gourmont4726]

Loeb c'est une macine, son coéquipier c'est une machine, la machine c'est une machine... Même pour moi qui suis pas à bord c'est angoissant. Quelle perf, bravo.

[@juxtaposeism]

the most elegant and efficient rally driver - his mechanics must have loved him

[@YABBAHEY1]

Loeb is one of the greats, I was always rooting for the Norwegians & Swedes but he beat them every time in the end by being ridiculously fast or more consistent on points. Joy to watch from inside the cab, thanks.

[@MrSdwagonjp]

The concentration you see in the drivers face is awesome. Kudos to the co-driver for his pace notes.

[@jtarnero]

too bad they set the camera so you can't see the co-driver's face. he's working his butt off too!

[@BrunoDECOURCY]

What really impresses me is the fact that he can drive like a maniac and listen to the notes given by Daniel Elena!!! And the rhythm of the notes is spot on always. This to be related to a video from Lando Norris asking his technician to shut up while he’s racing... Rallye drivers aren’t the same breed, that’s for sure!!!!

[@UnePintade]

Plus those notes are very precise compared to the usual british ones with the angle plus the tightness of each corners

[@juanignaciogonzalez4659]

Of course its extremely hard, but Loeb makes it to seem easy! Amazing the descend on the north face of the stage with the non-suitable mixed tyres! Thank you for sharing and huge, huge thanks to Seb Loeb and Daniel Elena for making us so happy!!!!

[@guybenett7764]

Des trajectoires au cordeau, jamais de derapages qui retardent, pas non plus de freinages inutiles. Ce qui crée un ensemble fluide et très rapide. On comprend pourquoi Loeb a ete un multiple champion du monde. Un grand bravo aussi à D. Elena.

[@anthonystoer7320]

Mr Sébastien Loeb et Christian Elena vous m aver fait rêver ouaou c étais juste géniale 23mins 43 seconde de pur bonheur.

[@koolgreatbikes5057]

crazy flying, sliding, pushing, french hero!...and hail to the co driver...i got dizzy just from watching...simply ..great!!

[@miguelferrandisperez5705]

i have this track in my mind thanks to dirt rally

[@NicoMavB]

Yep Like in Dirt Rally i can recognise also ! :)

[@lexrax_tbd]

Same here . I love Monaco in Dirt Rally :) Them Sides though , u cant hit the restart in real life :/

[@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

That's because Dirt Rally still doesn't give us enough stages - and no stage editor!

[@miguelferrandisperez5705]

X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X yep they leave the game pretty bad i would rather having updates with cars and stages instead of another game, but this is they way tney make money

[@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

Miguel Ferrandis Perez And even worse, it simply fails to simulate rallies this way. Sure, the same or similar stages are used for years, but rallying includes unknown or barely known stages. With just twelve unique stages in the game, Dirt Rally fails to deliver this. Let's see if we'll get a Dirt Rally 2 - I certainly hope so.

[@lephilomathe]

His trajectories are perfect, his speed too.

[@lioneljassin1602]

Absolument incroyable. Voilà pourquoi je crois que le rallye est la discipline la plus difficile (et une des plus dangereuses) des sports mécaniques. Tout au long du visionnage de cette étape mythique, je me disais qu'à la place d'Elena je crois que j'aurais sauté en marche 😅

[@AxelBitz]

It's incredible how the weather and terrain conditions change, and his ability to adapt to them is impressive

[@danilemahle5458]

magnifique! sans aucun doutes l une des plus belles speciales du monde ce jour la ! en plus Seb offre un pilotage incroyable.

[@t_kups8309]

+Tobias Just Finland is half a car too wide, tbh.

[@Garrett938]

+Garfie1d73 I came here because of that game.

[@seanhornibrook]

+Garfie1d73 IDK... The audio in DiRT Rally is better for sure... And there is too much lens flare in this game. Also, it looks too easy. Whoever was playing this one clearly either does not have the physics turned all the way up or it's just a bad game... I'll stick to DiRT.

[@someoneelse5789]

But dirt rally is arcade on monte carlo tracks at least. if you drive like this on Monte carlo in dirt rally, even clubman AI beats you. At least one driver would always do. Cause in Dirt rally yu have grip on asphalt you never have in reallife.

[@josemanueldiazpaton82]

the name of this stage on dirt rally is "valle descendante", but just the down part.

[@potageranimauxetmaisonnatu1121]

je le regarte comme un clasique du cinema, tout les ans

[@jorgeluisaguirre6794]

increible Sebastian Loeb, aun recuerdo cuando lo vi con mi hijo, por primera vez, conducia un coche privado y ya tenia esa calidad en el manejo, no puedo creer que lo vea ahora como un veterano conductor, no es un conductor espectacular, (no derrapa no patina no salta, jaja) , siempre seguro con un absoluto control de su vehiculo, siempre el mas veloz!!! Fantastico verlo desde su cabina, Fantastico Loeb y Elena!!

[@gstrdms]

He's so clean that it looks like he's going slow.

[@knallpistolen]

+gvstradamvs Loeb always was a master on tarmac, it's a joy watching drivers like him do their "magic".

[@StereoSnakes]

+gvstradamvs Almost looks effortless.

[@mooncorp212]

Daniel Elena's pacenote are awesome too. He's a great co-pilot.

[@Alniemi]

i agree its veru clean driving, but on what planet does that look slow XD

[@TorAndreBrresen]

He is, after the top going down you could drive faster with a road car on proper tires

[@markmark5269]

One critical part of Loeb's driving is every corner he does NOT play with the throttle, letting the chassis and tyres do their work, and only goes WTO one time when he is sure.

[@ibanez1012]

a "sentirlo" guidare è una vera goduria,, non porta mai il motore oltre la curva di coppia...che unito ad una guida di primissimo livello ne hanno fatto il mostro che era con tempi inavvicinabili in speciale,,imbattibile nei suoi anni di wrc, grandissimo pilota!!!!

[@VegeXP]

Master at work.

[@frantiseklupinek6189]

It sounds like a sight seeing tour from Elena :D Calm, slow , distinct, in time. A nice experience to hear him reading the book.

[@awannagannaful]

HOLY ****! Props to Navigator also, didnt miss a beat, cool as a cucumber. Msr Loeb... chapeau, esp the downhill section OMG even less chance for error. EPIC

[@spapanek1]

Nice. I love his way of driving. All seem to be so smooth and effortless and that made him so quick. Nice

[@GuillaumeWRC5]

Amazing ! What a legendary crew ! I loved the downhill part. Good decision to have uploaded an onboard like this one wrc, thanks !

[@thomasemperor]

Really like these videos but they would be even better with telemetry like speedometers, gear, throttle and brake information. Please add those!

[@ozdemirmelih]

Thomas yeah 👍🏼

[@awannagannaful]

WGAF if you can't tell when he's on the limit by watching and listening then you dont know s**t about driving.

[@melody3741]

I can hear and watch most of it but the only thing you cant get precise information about is the brakes. You can tell sort of by the speed and how the nose dips but not very well. it would be really cool anyway to see the info laid out in front of you to make it easier to learn from him, he has a point. Also, who the heck claimed to be an expert? Presumably he is here to learn. Like most people.

[@domidom8557]

@@awannagannaful Yeah, all the engineers in motorsports who use telemetry and various data to see exactly what the driver is doing must be clueless aswell. Get off your high horse.

fantastic to watch a master at work. What is really interesting is to see the adaptation to the change of rhythm.

very nice, it's like the mountain roads in Norway. btw Loeb's Pike's peak hill climb record is also nice to watch.

Maybe but finishing the course is more important. Do not forget the weather conditions.

Brilliant. I one way it might look to be pretty boring... but god, the precision... Amazing...

[@omarsheriff51]

He's like Alain Prost. No huge risks, not the fastest on every stage but ends up winning because of consistency. It's like there's a french style of "slow and steady wins the race".

His driving lines were perfection...

[@vladimirtomin8223]

He is driving like a racer, he enters the turn slower but with better curve and grip, so he can accelerate faster from the turn instead of sliding. This is fastest way of driving but it looks slower because of how smooth it is. Math and physics are on Loeb's side here.

[@CARBON10]

Well hell I hope so

[@corentinoger]
