Many people here have said how impressive Abbring was. Really? Slowly cruising through the event, I fail to see the impressive part

I haven't watch any videos, can't tell how good it was. But his aim seem to be achieved, bring the car home and gather experience.

I expect Abbring to be much faster than Paddon after some time.

me too. I'm little disappointed by Paddon, though we must consider he was driving Sordo's car here, which turned out problem for Hyunday, so this Rally can't be true judgement for Paddon's speed. We'll see.

Thanks! Couldn't be bothered going over it once more deleting clips, knew it would be hard when i had 10 min of usable clips from shakedown already :p

Kev's performance in Sweden wasnt superb, it was average, nothing special. But it was without real preparation and I didnt expected anything special from him there...

You might also consider that this was Paddon's second ever rally on snow and that, in all likelihood, the instructions from the boss were to bring the car home in the points. A job which he fulfilled admirably.
What is there to be disappointed about?

I think you'll find Paddon's speed quite different on surfaces he's familiar with and in a car set up to his liking. If Abbring can keep up ... we'll be in for a treat.
