Grönholm wants to pull a 'Raikkonen'

By on

This weekend the final race of the Rally season will be held at Wales. Marcus Grönholm, who won the title in 2000 and 2002, is at the moment 6 points behind leader Sébastian Loeb, who can win his fourth consecutive title on Sunday.

This weekend's rally will be the 150th race for Grönholm and the last of his career as he will retire after this season. Although he's 6 points behind in the Championship standings, Grönholm remains confident of winning the title: "It will be very difficult, but I still have a chance. Look what happened in Formula One! I have to depend on others, so I don't feel pressured anymore. It would be very special if after the F1 title, the Rally Championship would also have a Finnish champion."

If Grönholm wants to snatch the title, he has to win at Wales and his rival Loeb can not finish in the top five.
