btw. He was 6th in Rally Estonia 2013, just behind Timmu Kõrge..who was driving Evo9..

Well he was a lot quicker here than Korge, whilst Korge lasted.

One more thing to consider; Gryazin was on Pireli tyres and most top crews were on Michelin. Could this have helped?

The end of the video is Epic!
And on Gryazin thing.. to make things even more complicated.. Kõrge was running on Hankook tyres and it seems these are not so good on soft-fresh snow.

Did enough to win the event, what else is needed? That is the way to win a championship, you need to win just by 1sec, not 10min. And I was under the inpression that road conditions on day 1 played a huge part

Nice video. But looking at those images makes me sad that they have this rally a the "snow event" instead of a proper winter rally like Arctic rally

Slow down :D

But yes, what I liked about him is that he also seemed enthusiastic and happy this weekend. As has been said, this was the event he would have been expected to win. Let's see how he does on the other events, but I think he is probably favourite for the title as he will have the support to do it and a reliable and fast car (unless the 208 is something amazing)

Yes, I also think that Lappi is main candidate for the title, but his success depends on two factors:
1) how good 208 R5 is
2) how good is the chicken business this year (is Bouffier in or out of the championship?) :)

3rd factor is if 208 drivers are good too. Breen I'm not sure about but hopefully will get better, Bouffier will be very good if, as you say, he gets the opportunity/budget and maybe one or two other drivers will be able to make a difference too in customer/PH/etc 208s.

I also think that Bouffier can win the title. I'm starting eating chickens from tomorrow morning ;)

If I recall there were some negotiations between organizers of Arctic and Eurosport few years back but after all the Finns were not interested. Something in my head tells me it was because they wanted to keep WRC cars in and also because of the Pirelli-only deal for FRC...

He is still very young so a big progress is possible. Also this rally is rather specific and there are plenty of drivers who are superfast once per season but hardly anywhere else. We will see next time.

It's nice to see so many different nationalities in top 10 of the rally! Another interesting tip is that Lappi has started in 5 ERC rallies and has 3 wins (Liepaja 2014, Switzerland 2013, Poland 2012), 1 second place (San Remo 2013) and 1 accident (Barum 2013)!

No Pirelli deal anymore + some changees inthe management of ASN (not enough though). So it might b possible now...

It doesn't prove he is WRC material I agree, but shows maturity not to push too much but just to do enough to guarantee maximum points

I completely agree.

Rally Liepaja was again a nice event and I think the next ERC event will be great too. :)

I have seen Gryazin on fast part of one stage. It has nothing to do with tyres, in that time (second leg) him and Lappi were driving much more precisely and faster than other drivers...

Cool, he is doing an excellent job considering he is driving for a private team. I thought he was pretty respectable on Janner too, will be interesting to see if he keeps developing this year.

Did he have a "long" gearbox in Latvia? I know at one stage he was running a short one which was clearly not ideal.

He was with short gearbox all the time.
