With the Ford Focus, Latvala started third on the Mexican tracks, taking advantage of the trails created earlier by those ahead of him in the championship, Hirvonen and Loeb.<\/p>\n<p>The second day was tougher for Latvala, who opened the road, and thus logically Loeb took advantage of this to regain the lead position and win the Mexican rally for the third time. The Citro\u00ebn driver also benefited from a turbo issue encountered by Latvala, causing him to lose second place.<\/p>\n<p>\u00ab The absence of Marcus Gronholm has been largely compensated by the arrival of Latvala, younger and much more determined I feel! \u00bb comments Loeb. \u00ab I expect great feats from him this season. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Latvala indeed replaced Gronholm in 2007 after he retired. At 22, he was able to take over and already manages to surpass his teammate, Hirvonen, who is leading the championship.<\/p>\n<p>Latvala commented: &#8220;I achieved my goal by being on the podium, and it&#8217;s still hard to accept this position when we were leading on Friday,&#8221; he admitted. &#8220;Overall, it was a good weekend, and I have no complaints.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On his part, Hirvonen stated that he needs to improve his speed if he wants to keep up with Loeb and Latvala.<\/p>\n<p>\u00ab Jari-Matti [Latvala] and Loeb were very fast, and I couldn&#8217;t match their pace, but I&#8217;ll need to find some speed, or I could say goodbye to the championship&#8230; \u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The French quadruple world rally champion, S\u00e9bastien Loeb, said he was very impressed by the young Jari-Matti Latvala and believes he will have a serious competitor for victories throughout this 2008 season.
