They are both phenominal drivers, just need more experience at the top level of competition before we will see any groundbreaking events come from either of them.
I never said Block wasn't a great driver, he just is not on par to be a top WRC driver at this point. I can definitely see him developing into one given a couple seasons under his belt.

Pastrana would take much longer to groom into becoming a decent WRC driver and even then the maturity level and personality is going to more than likely keep every sponsor car company away.
