Kalle was in trouble finishing 3 or 4 rallies in a row this season. For sure he is ready to make a partial move though.
On the other hand Rovanperä has nothing to prove in R5 as well. Tough choice. Part time WRC and R5 season?

When he was driving private team cars with some setup issues in Sweden and Corsica. Monte is just a difficult event, the ice wasn't noticed by his safety crew.Quote:

He only miss now to run the Proton of all the R5 homologated cars, not?, (excluding new generations of fiesta and fabia), I think not so much drivers have done itQuote:

Despite Meeke's results so far I'm surprised to hear Tommi wants him replaced. Before he went to Toyota he was Kris' biggest shill, going on and on about how he could win any rally and really wanting him onboard.
Tommi is so confusing, and really seems to have a massive hardon for Tanak.
It's not like you've had to beat everyone on every surface on every rally before you can move up to WRC. It's about the overall picture and the maturity he's shown lately.Quote:
