It’ll be interesting to see what, if any feedback about the tyres comes out.
The main difference came in SS2 (This was due to the tyre choice I believe). I watched some videos and saw that Kalle looked more clean and cautious on ice whereas Adrien took more risks. TBH, I was expecting Fourmaux to be first in this rally because Kalle hasn't been in this car on Tarmac more than a year. I believe he is a bit rusty on Tarmac.
However this is a test rally for them so I wouldn't take this very serious.
Congrats to Fourmaux also.
Equal status.. :D
Fourmaux used Thierry's overalls (sponsors were duct-taped)

But this little thing aside, nice start for him in Hyundai!
Pirelli stickers on Fourmaux's car today. Was Rovanpera mostly testing the Hankook's ?

I saw a brief interview with Fourmaux where he said he didn’t know because they never tried the tyres in these conditions. I assume he meant the Hankooks.Quote:

Really really good test for them with all sorts of conditions I have to say
On the first day there were no tyre stickers on his car, but on the second day the Pirelli logos's appeared...Quote:

Hah. Sounds so familiar
