    I have been wondering about this idea of sort-of-merging WRC1/2 by nerfing/buffing the cars, and how it will play out on cleaning rallies.

    In Sweden, we had a WRC2 stage win thanks to massive...

    Ah-hah, I think I get it.

    If they enter an actual Cayman with a roll cage and different shocks and so on, it has to go in the GT class which has rules designed to stop it from winning anything...

    I only know Sordo from 2016 onwards. FWIW... in my time, the most important thing about Sordo was that he was prepared to be a support driver.

    I just saw this said about Dani Sordo: "At one point he was the most successful WRC driver without a win to their name." The wording implies that he no longer has that distinction. But I can't think...

    Yes, same here.

    I think it's lucky the falling snow only lasted one afternoon. One WRC2 stage winner is a story, a couple of days of it would make me think "This is getting silly".

    I think it was intended to stop Sunday mornings where everybody was cruising to the power stage. I think that was a real problem, and it has succeeded at fixing that.

    When do the results stop being "provisional" (or whatever the term is) and go on the WRC website?

    I chose to support Pajari in WRC2 on the Thursday morning before Monte because I liked the sound of his name. I thought he was Hungarian, that's how much I knew about him.

    So...

    Evans drove hard and fast on all days and was rewarded with top points. I think he possibly drove ever-so-slightly too hard because he had quite a lot of hard knocks on snowbanks.

    Or... Lappi taking it easy for half the rally and getting less points than somebody who didn't. Makes perfect sense from that angle.

    Time will tell, but I think I'll take that trade. Too often, I got up early on Sunday morning and thought "might as well have gone for a walk and come back for the power stage".

    The real question is "will it stop people cruising to the power stage, who would have done so under the old rules?"
