About Mikkelsen - yes, he was a bit too slow, but this is from a "continues full-timer perspective which is fighting for positions". We don't know what were his goals and tasks by the team.

On a positive note: as he tried to push on the PowerStage, he was able to show good speed.

The rules might be simple but the money usually isn't!

"Celebrity" entries often require a free entry & sometimes additional incentives to compete on such rallies. The budget of the event doesn't always allow these deals. This may not be an issue if the event comes at the right time and has the right conditions to allow some practice for a major event. Events looking to attract this sort of entry need to be in the right place & at the right time or have lots of spare cash for these things to happen.

Nice to watch how competitors are discussing different things, Tänak and Taka, Mikkelsen and Latvala. Sordo also there.

How many times did Tänak eat a banana?

THIS was incredible! Msport had one or two really cool videos last year or in 2022, I dont remember.
Awesome. Hope all teams start to do this thing. Its like our "hardcore fan's drive to survive in rallying where theres no actual fights on track haha

wrc should produce this kind of content and make it mandatory for the team as well.

So Monte livery was just a one off and they changed it again and it stays now for rest of the season

I like the side look of the new livery more but then again it looks so similar to previous years.
