This weekend at Great Britain is the final rally of the 2009 WRC season.

For the first time in the past 6 years somebody other than Sebastien Loeb (Citroen) has a shot at the championship.

Ford's Mikka Hirvonen currently leads Loeb by one point.

So whoever get's a better result at GB will be the champion. In the case of tie champion will be Loeb because he won more races (6 vs 4).

 

Thanks for the update Zoran!

Loeb won so he's a new-old champ (for the 6th time in the row).

 

Yeah, wish the outcome would have been different, but still a good season for FMC.
