Itīs not the car, itīs the driver... Swedish one is just slower ;)

I hope it is really in the car and not in the driver. I saw Bergkvist during Barum15 and he was totally the fastest from all the 2WD guys and great to watch. Everybody must confirm.
You are right,but will not be the first driver to struggle at next category,while he was dominating in a smaller one.

I was answering Rallypers point about lack of torque after he saw the videos from various r5 cars.
I don't think that some NM difference among ds3 vs fiesta vs fabia are visible from videos. We are talking about small differences.
We know that skoda has a very good torque curve,as we know that psa cars are among the most powerfull.
From my experience on stages the PSA cars are very slow from 1st gear corners (on asphalt huge and very clearly visible difference). It may not be only torque related but also due to seemingly very low level of ALS compared to Škoda.
