In all this noise a very few observers are noticing the shine of a young irish boy taking two 5th places in his first full season at WRC. He was also with an "old" WRC car in Monte.

Let's analyze his outcomes in the WRC the last two years:

- 8 events
- One podium
- 46 points total
- 7 out of 8 times on points (I personally think this is the most impressive one, along with the podium in Finland)
- competitive on all surfaces
- Not an excuse or a whine when he had problems, only blaming himself and trying to improve

I'm sure this list will have way more bullet points at the end of the year...
