Mikkelsen putting some pressure on himself. I think he might be disappointed...
Yes. With Ostberg and Gryazin out, Lukyanuk and Solberg taking care about points, Mikkelsen seems to be the main favourite for the win, doesn't he?
Solberg is far behind in the championship, if he wants a chance to win the title, he has to push. Mikkelsen hasn't done an event all year long. Some (tyre development) testing mileage isn't the same as Oliver Solberg who has done 8 events, including good preparation for each of them. Luky is far ahead in the championship, so in theory he can cruise, but he did the event last year so has some knowledge, as most of the roads have been used last year too. Then there are some other drivers who could surprise. Munster has had a good season so far, improving his pace every event. The roads in Hungary have quite a lot of things in common with the roads in his own region, and he's only just behind Oliver Solberg in Junior ERC standings, so he has a lot to win, little to lose. Then there's Yoann Bonato who is very fast, but I think his starting position could be a big disadvantage.
Will be really tricky rally. It will be interesting to see Mikkelsen's speed, if he still has it. Tough rally, no time to adapt, long time without competition driving, personally I dont think he will win this.
Why he went back to his old co-driver, any info about that?
