    This probably also highlights that it is too big a jump from a production based rally car to a WRC spec car. Maybe a drive in a RRC might have been better. Other drivers have commented that the difference in suspension travel is the hardest thing to get used to.

    But in the end, rally is all about experience, if you know the car and you know the stage you will go fast. Fast in Estonia in a car he knows versus fast in a WRC car in Finland are two different things. Not about nationalism but just a fact.

    Walk before you run.

    he already drove R5 and won in it 3 times... the step was logical since he is already in his mid 30s.

    Absolutely. He's a wonderful talent and very entertaining. It's a great shame we won't see him this weekend. Let's hope he gets another chance.

    It doesn't matter at all he totaled the car in his first WRC debut.
    If one day he makes it to the top he'll be the odd man out changing the statistics.

    Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.

    Interesting that you would use the McRae 1000 Lakes clip. In contrast not only was the damage inflicted 'on event' but he actually brought the car home in a points scoring position.

    And on both cars (CMR and AL) looks like the wheels pointing the right direction...

    Who doesn't? - You name it he dose it.
    It's part of the game finding the limit.
    There is a sign from above he got away intact.
    Better crash prior the event than on the event itself.
    If he's given the chance to start he could still turn into a surprise.

    I didn't realise those guys were given the best car in the world and then promptly crashed it after driving it for just 3km.
