    For a driver who lives and dies by his confidence level, it's not promising at all that Jari-Matti is literally all over the place already in testing. I sincerely hope I'm wrong though.

    Dunno why folk care much about testing crashes. All the best drivers have had testing crashes, some more severe than other like Ogier in Finland or Neuville in Corsica(?). Meeke, Mikkelsen and Jari all had newsworthy ones as well now, and two of those were on the first time a driver drove the car in anger. Testing is all about finding the limits, seeing what works and doesn't etc. Hardly a big deal

    Test days are limited, when you crash, you don´t drive, you lose valuable time.

    Yup, they look like Enkei tarmac wheels. Maybe a new sponsor.. which would make sense since they're a Japanese company
