Remember - the "M" on a rear window means an inexperienced driver who is still learning how to drive a car :D

What a mess with leg2 starting list...
The organisers put Arai to start 6th despite he finished 8th in the leg and he should have been 3th in starting list.

Of course that is unfair for Alex Tsouloftas, Mares and Habaj who should have a better starting position.
The regulations are clear:
45.4.1 In ERC and ERT, the start order for subsequent Legs shall be based on the classification at the
finish of the final special stage of the previous Leg excluding any super special stage if run at the end of the
Leg.
45.4.2 The first 10 cars in the overall classification will re-start as a merged group in reverse order
according to their classification in Art. 45.4.1. (ERC only)
Good to see ERC YT channel showing some pure sound videos like: https://youtu.be/w2rOzJdQ1-I
Nice footage. Also qualy stage (posted rather late): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EPb89UGCVYs
Solberg looking good for the win now - Luky says he's under big pressure from the team not to push.
Didn't take long to get the "next world champion" comments. (On twitter, not here)
Every time a young driver does something good he is already a world champion Rovanpera, Suninen, Lappi etc. etc. While I certainly admire good results I just hate this kind of talk.
Pat them on the back and encourage them to keep working hard. There is a long road to actually winning the championship. Imo this talk of how great they are is more often than not counter-productive. I dare say Lappi from 2017 to now is a good example. Pissed off unless he is winning stages instead of focusing on steady progress.
Much better road position today for @E_Brynildsen... and a much better time ! 4th quickest through ! https://t.co/bU8An6d14w
