I think Lehtinen is all but confirmed for the position, which is good, because he is a proper rally man. But then, Mahonen also was a proper rally man, and was really right about some things, even as he was very wrong about some others.
I think the best thing the FIA could do would be to keep a very 'light touch' approach to regulation. Naturally the instinct of every new appointee is to do something big and put his name on it, but I hope Lehtinen can resist that urge.

Tidemand was testing yesterday with Skoda in Norway, so i presume he is staying put.
