A title for under the picture: IRC-boy and privateer fastest on WRC-opener!
I would say Meeke has done a couple of Montes in ERC/IRC, however with some mistakes. Hope for better this time though.Quote:

Just checked ewrc.cz and Meeke as driven Monte 5 times. In 2003 & 2004 with Corsa s1600, in 2005 with C2 s1600 where he won, and in 2009 & 2010 with the 207 S2000.
3/5 finishes.
Exactly. Meeke has a big experience deficit to other guys in the field- both in driving a wrc spec car and doing wrc rallies. This is only his 11th start in a WRC car in the WRC. Even Ostberg is around 60 or 70+ starts in WRC :eek:. Kubica has amazed me today!!!Quote:

Hilarious: former i20 tester now is leading the rally, while both Hyundais are now parked in the service park, retired...
I think I said at the time, either on here or in Twitter than Hyundai should gave kept Bouffier for Monte. He's done lots of testing in the car - and goes well on the event. But, they made their choice....
Overall, a great start to the 2014 season; I think the 49km stage will shake things up.....can't wait!!
