Maybe both?
Pierre-Louis is 22 years old and comes from Corsica. He is the son of Yves Loubet, European Rally Champion from 1989 at the wheel of Lancia Delta Integrale from the famous Grifone Esso team (see the photo below).
He must have very good financial backing, because he spent the last 5 years in the WRC, actually without any success.
That's about all I know
You can read about him here:

WRC2 Pro need to get more press and airtime if this is something the factories will continue to support.
When not even the internal All Live transmissions bother to show their driving and interview them on all stages, what do manufacturers get back for signing up?

They usually show them when they have the time. But often there's such short time between stages and it goes directly from. Stage 1 to stage 2 f.ex and WRC got priority. The plane, helicopters gotta move on etc, they can't cover many areas at once.
But perhaps a bigger Highlights section for WRC2/pro would do well, I agree it's not that much prioritized as it is now

They need full 25min review of WRC2/pro as it was later back with PWRC. In that case more TV time, more PR and so on

... and it turned out to be a very good decision. Kajto scored his best result ever in the World Rally Championship - 12th overall and 2nd in WRC2:

Don't forget that he was driving i20 R5 in the past and virtually nobody achieved any international success with it.

Today without bigger drama for Rally1, so expecting tomorrow lot of retirements maybe, because there is NEVER rally without issues. Let's see guys, favorizing Ogier for the win probably, depends on...
