I was disapointed with Tänak, i have to say. Judging by his speed in the S2000 last year, i expected him to challenge for stage wins. (on the real stages)

I agree with you J.Lindstroem after loads of people seemed to want him in the Ford factory seat alongside JML. I thought that maybe I'd missed something and that he was a much better driver than I had thought myself.
It seemed I was right (along with many others) and they were wrong! Where are the people who said Tanak should be in the official Ford team now? Probably the same people who say Petter has been too slow so far...
Guy is no worse then Latvala at this stage of carrier. When remember those tears in Germany and all crashes, this bloke is not bad. But he can wipe a** to Ogier.
dont be in a rush to make conclusions.There are so many thinks that can be wrong.Wait and be patience with youngsters.We ll see at more rallies for safe conclusions.
i ve said it again,s2000 cars are more human for a good driver,wrc cars are not ''human'' for everybody.
If he'll have budget to compete in 10 years plan, he could be winner.
My thoughts exactly, he is a very good driver, just not ready for a factory seat when theres JML, Petter, Loeb and Hirvonen.Quote:

In 1996, he failed the final again. But he didn't mind, Sebastien was sure of his skills but the hardest part was still to be done : he had to find the money to try to start a career.

I think Tänak is promising driver. He IS very young as you've mentioned, why won't we give him time.
Like till the end of first stage in Mexico?Quote:
