Hey guys,
any advices on the Sebastien Loeb Challenge? Seems to be impossible for me. :/

Rallying is not like drifting. Both might involve cars travelling sideways, but rallying is more of a discipline than an extreme sport. When you slide through corners in a rally car, the idea is to use the slide to get through the corner as quickly as possible; in drifting, it's all about the show, which slows you down. The trick is to slide just enough to keep your momentum going through the corner so that you can carry speed into the next section of road, but not so much that you fishtail. Rallying is less about power and more about control; don't pound on the accelerator as soon as you're through a corner. Rather, balance the power to match your motion. Increase the power steadily as the car corrects itself, or else you'll just spin about. Learn to anticipate the corner ahead, because unlike circuit racing, the fastest line through a corner is often unconventional at best, and think about where you are on the road in relation to the next corner when you come out of the previous one. Aim to be in the best position possible for the next turn when you're done with the one you're in. Get into a rhythm and moderate the throttle for maximum effectiveness. It might sound slower to control the throttle as you come out of your slide than it is to simply pounce on the accelerator the moment you come out of a corner, but it's much better in the long run. Above all else, remember this: you have to play the long game. You have to think ahead - where you are, where you'll be and where you should be for the next corner.
Same here, thats the trick on Chamonix - if you don't take a risk and are too slow through the corners then you'll get bogged down in the snow and lose precious seconds.Got all gold I was well suprised ! I left the car as it was and basically tried to be smooth but aggressive and also when on the throttle out of corners get the wheels straight as fast as possible and try using 1st instead of 2nd on some corners where the rpm drops right off. chamonix, I basically stayed 1 gear higher than it was telling me through the corners.
It sounds like the driver aids are really cheats in the game.
Unrealistic too.
I surprised myself, (this may be considered cheating)I use manual gears, traction control 3, ABS 5 and maybe skid control if allowed (or maybe not).All on the pad too.
