I think Kalle is going a bit too wide. The Swedish snowbanks will not allow that next week.Quote:

You have to take into consideration the new tyres. We have no idea how much slower or faster they are and the conditions weren’t also exactly the same. Sweden will give a better picture but then again the conditions aren’t exactly the same as last year again
No videos of the M-Sport tests for Sweden ?
I agree, that comparison is impossible to make with tyres and conditions thrown in. I would not be surprised if the Hankook tyres for Sweden are not as good as the Pirelli’s either, but as long as they are reliable and retain the studs well, that doesn’t matter too much.Quote:

Has anyone seen Sesks testing? May be they could cut 1 event but get proper PET on 6?
