I think this event also shows just how much experience matters on most rallies. It's totally new for everyone, and suddenly the new drivers aren't that far back anymore. Except for munster and josh, they still suck.

This. Therefore i do not understand those who say that Sesks underperformed in 6 rounds earlier this season. How much PET and seat time plus experience he had? For me Sweden and Finland were events that talked much more about him as a driver - no mistakes on these very specialized events, faster than teammates, without any experience with 4wd car. This rally shows that when experience makes no advantage, younger drivers are competitive right away.
I am sure, Sesks sooner or later will land a factory drive; future is good for WRC - Fourmaux, Pajari, Solberg, Sesks and I would even put McErlean in this line. He has speed, I noted him in ERC. You will see, his 2nd season will be much better.
