Östberg will be ahead of Mikkelsen in the championship if the current results stand.

Without PS points Mads will have 27 and Andreas will have 24. It is possible to get 1-2-3 if Andreas wins PS and Mads does not score at all. How likely is that?

Just a short distraction before the Alps road roller strikes back.

You mean that doesn't accumulate experience?

Yeah but still his experience is much less than anybody else in WRC car. I think this year he will be out the road many many times and it will be nothing strange. If it won't better next year it will be a problem.

He come with no experience and win WRC2 title, and was able to win rallies with Evans isn't that impresive ? Wet gravel and changing conditions is most problem for Kubica and he must learn how to evaluate conditions. He say that only way for that to ride with good speed. First and second day, until crash, speed wasn't so bad, but still too fast for his experience.

He also wins Yanner this year in ERC also big achievement for driver with so little experience.

In this rally he was both slow and crashed a lot...not a good sign...

His easy winning in WRC2 last year shows quality of that championship. He was also trying ERC events and he has crashed almost on each event (mechanics saved him on Corse before crash). This year winning on Janner was really very lucky, he was going in very high rhythm over the risk. Without really big luck he cannot reach the finish on Janner...

I agree, I was expecting slightly better from him, at least being a bit quicker. Anyway his real pace as a rally driver will be shown in the next couple of gravel rallies.
