WRC 2
It’s a two-way Scandinavian fight here between 2017 champion Pontus Tidemand and co-driver Patrik Barth from Sweden, and Norwegians Mads Østberg / Torstein Eriksen.
Tidemand is 18 points clear, but a driver only counts his best five scores. He already has five, so if the Skoda Fabia pilot scores in Monza, he must discard his lowest score of 15 to add to his total.
Østberg has scored in only four rounds so can keep whatever he bags in Italy.
To aid Tidemand, Toksport has entered Jan Kopecký, and the Czech champion’s presence could be crucial. If he places himself between Tidemand and Østberg in the Monza result, it will severely dent the Citroën C3 driver’s chances.
A Tidemand win, second for Kopecký and third for Østberg means the title goes back to Tidemand. If Østberg wins, the title is his.
The teams’ championship has already been won by Toksport.
WRC 3
This is a little easier…….
Marco Bulacia is two points ahead of Jari Huttunen, with Kajetan Kajetanowicz 15 points off the lead. Nobody else can win the title.
Drivers count their best four scores from their first five nominated events. Bulacia must drop 12 points if he scores highly, while both Huttunen and Kajetanowicz can keep all they gain (Kajetanowicz will drop a zero score).
The odds are, therefore, in favour of Huttunen, who would take the crown if he finishes first or second. If Bulacia wins the rally and Huttunen comes home third, then it gets incredibly complicated. And we mean incredibly……
The co-drivers’ title will be fought out between leader Mikko Lukka (Huttunen), Maciej Sczepaniak (Kajetanowicz) and Marcelo Der Ohannesian (Bulacia), who has only partnered the Bolivian for part of the season.
IMO the much more likely situation that Toksport had in mind is that Kopecky wins denying Østberg 25 points and then Tidemand and Østberg end close to each other. But if Østberg ends 2nd and Tidemand 3th I believe Østberg wins due to more 2nd places.

Does Gryazin have broken up with Hyundai? He is entered next week in a regional rallye here in Spain with a Polo R5.
Little statistic:
2020 had
8 different WRC2 drivers
51 different WRC3 drivers started (32 only 1 rally)
Despite the reportedly small budget, an old spec car and a small team it is Jari Huttunen who wins this year's WRC3. Congratulations!

Monza was another rally where top WRC3 drivers were faster than all WRC2 crews:

I guess Mads Ostberg has a different opinion :D
Apparently this tactic didn't work, because it is Mads Ostberg who wins the Italian round and the whole WRC2 category. Congratulations!
