Before the rally some people were argueing that the locals absolutely can not dominate the RC2. Now there is 8 of them in top 12. Just saying.

Not in speed, but in experience, which gave them the advance being high.Quote:

Everyone can drive fast and crash. It's part of the game not to trash it, eh?Quote:

Nevertheless, the local guys are fast in this rally.
You´d like all of the local heroes to go to Rally Finland then? Maybe they win there as well? :)
IMHO Suninen, Huttunen, Solberg, Gryazin are top drivers and they should not end being beaten like this (with the exception being Solberg who was just unlucky unlike his more experienced colleagues).Quote:

However the lack of experience was there, as you say. No doubt. That was the point.
