    I wonder, is that his driving stile, or he was just driving on the limit?
    Imagine how fast he could get after sorting out all those mistakes.

    Not much experience from the car. Also, trying to be fast to show the team bosses he has the pace. And he succeeded in that. He just needs more testing and more races in a WRC car and he'll be a winner.

    for sure huge potential ,but he has to fine tune his driving,and we don't know if he is able to do it.He will not be lucky every time to spin with 5th gear into the trees and continue without damage.
    See Meeke for example.

    It's easier to make a fast driver reliable than to make a reliable driver fast.

    That off course doesn't mean it's always possible.

    And sometimes, when all hope of both speed and consistency seems lost, it appears (JML )

    Suninen has biggest push almost every clip. Looks like he is over the limit most of the places. Luckily survived until the end. Looks nice atleast. Start to like him already. He has bright future in wrc like Lappi. Huttunen showed good pace aswell. Lets see if he has enough balls to take next step.

    Hyundai have same problem with shock absorbers than last year. Rear is powersliding too much and car balance after jumps not perfect like Ford. Paddon did couple of good stages but but...

    Tänak obviously loose mood after puncture. Waiting lot of him.

    Ogier has two crashes in one week. Lets see in germany if he is back again.

    Toyota just wow. Wasnt any surprise that they were that level in Finland. You will see in germany good speed aswell.

    Nice rally and i like these new wrc cars. Start to look like real rallying after many years. Amazing speed and sounds nice also. I was in shakedown and jukojärvi stage. Only hate that concretes. Hope they (fia) listen drivers and cutting continues next year.

    Thank you for the Videos. Awesome action!!

    Clever ? Yeah, right.

    And not so 'clever' for the Manufacturer's championship was it Thierry...
    He knew his pace wasn't there, so he took it steady to watch the others fall instead of going speeds he couldn't handle. Turned out alright for his championship, didn't it...

    Pretty Ogier-esque this season if you ask me.

    Yeah, sure, but early in the event he was bitching about how he wouldn't be competitive. He knows he sucked but he's passing it off as if he'd planned it all along.
