Drive selected rallies in R5 when there is a lot of competition from other teams/drivers to keep and fine-tune the ability to drive 100% the whole rally.

Kalle was in trouble finishing 3 or 4 rallies in a row this season. For sure he is ready to make a partial move though.

On the other hand Rovanperä has nothing to prove in R5 as well. Tough choice. Part time WRC and R5 season?

Well, maybe, but still the burden of bringing home team points in that tight competition is quite a big responsibility for someone starting in the class. A shared car on favourite events, with no pressure is more ideal imo.

Yes I'd say so as well. But looking at who his manager is, it's more likely he just gets pushed in full time.
Don't agree he has nothing to prove in R5. This year in Sweden he was never really the fastest even against "B" guys and in Chile he was on same speed as Østberg. He still didn't win a tarmac rally with R5 (he did win Spain, but that's more than 1/3 gravel)

Despite Meeke's results so far I'm surprised to hear Tommi wants him replaced. Before he went to Toyota he was Kris' biggest shill, going on and on about how he could win any rally and really wanting him onboard.
Tommi is so confusing, and really seems to have a massive hardon for Tanak.
