Much better than renting the car to Bertelli.
Will be really interesting to see the comparison with Katsuta.

I hope I'm wrong, but the feeling I have is that he's going to struggle with the car and be a long way off the pace.
He's clearly not a bad driver - he won't be beaten by any Rally2s on pure pace, that's for sure - but I can't see him being quicker than Katsuta.

Maybe he didn’t think they were spending enough on repair bills.
It’s nothing more than a glorified ego trip.If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

What the hell This is why we can't have nice things. Would you say the same about Grönholm doing Rally Sweden in 2010 or 2019? Or Loeb? He also had some years between his stints.
On his day Latvala was one of the fastest drivers out there and has done so much for rallying with this passion for historic cars and for rallying overall. And considering what kind of bad luck he had with Toyota in his last WRC, I think he has rather earned this ride. To say he is satisfying his ego is too much I would say.

The difference I suppose with Gronholm and Loeb is that they’re proven world champions. Did Latvala ever come close?
