To actually have a serious discussion about this, I'm really disappointed Mikko is retiring without a championship, because he deserved one. We're talking about a driver who was so good and so consistent he had three full seasons where none of his finishes were outside the top 5, and two more seasons with only one finish outside the top 5. In the four seasons where he finished second to Loeb in the championship he absolutely destroyed everyone else. Destroyed as in the points gap from him to third was at least twice the size of the gap between him and Loeb (except for 2012, where it was about a 50/50 split in size). In 2009, a season Loeb won seven fucking races, he still only managed to beat Mikko by a single point, because Mikko was on the podium every goddamn race.
...You know what? Fuck it. I'm writing a tribute post, because he deserves it.
