I arrived in Europe from SA in 1999, andf while there was a thriving SA rally championship, the WRC did not get all that focus other than reports in general Motor racing programmes.

So I was entralled to watch the WRC, and that stage some of the lower tier classes - and that when I first saw Seb in the Citroen Saxo class. You just KNEW he was a champion (even though he scored very few points  that year and the next 2). He was and is just brilliant.
