    Whatever you need to tell yourself Jari...


    He was talking pre-season about how aiming for a podium every rally was the route to the title - like Ogier last year. Now it's win or bust. Sad really but I don't see him winning another WRC event. Even when the Yaris is the strongest car he'll have at least one, probably two teammates driving quicker.

    I have faith in him racking up more wins. He's quick, although he hasn't showed it this year, I suppose due to his consistency plan. In Finland last year he was unbeatable and before he crashed he'd been putting in a massive push. He also nearly won the Mexico PS.

    And yet he has only one SS win at this point. I hope he gets his mojo back also, but ...

    didnt he have the same thinking in 2016? i remember that at one year he said the same thing after some rounds but i dont remember how it worked out.

    and the thing that always makes me scratching my head is why Jari always says such things in public.

    Apart from 2014, his seasons have never really turned out to be championship contending. He'll win a few more rallies, like he always has done, before his retirement.

    I know, my mistake, I thought I'd written "in Corsica"

    Trivia question: has there ever been a rally with all the top drivers under rally2? If not, what was the highest amount of restarting cars?

    No. Rally2 is quite recent. On past maybe that could happened with so much more stages and days

    With Rally 2 no. I know of a Bandama Rally of the early 70's (if I'm not mistaking) with 0 finishers, everyone retired.
    I wouldn't know about the second question.
