    I meant comparing either to WRC/custom cars is wrong.

    I don't think so. Modern R5 cars are already faster than many older WRC cars. This is always tricky and never possible to say with certainty how much a car plays a role. Safe to say is only that the guys were with different cars and it's not fully comparable therefore.

    Good. Would have been ridicolous if not.

    As we already know Timo Jouhki confirmed that Kalle has 2+1 year contract with the SKODA. So at least 2019 in WRC2 and if he is able to drive works World Rally Car in 2020, he is free to go. But maybe then it could be SKODA WRC

    This and next year is all about to get more experience from the different WRC events. Jouhki said also that he is sure that Kalle would be ready already now to drive the top 6 behind the wheel of the World Rally Car. Source: yle.fi
