WRC2 Pro & WRC2 2019

[Sulland]

Why just one car i 2Pro from Citroen. They need data on loose from more than Mads to develop.
Is the plan to keep only one car, or will we see 2 after Sweden?

Also I'm super hyped for WRC2/pro for Sweden - I mean just look at that entry list!

This weekend Kristoffersson won swedish championship round, Emil Lindholm won in Finland, Nikolay Gryazin won the Finnskog by almost 7minutes and all of them will be driving in Sweden.
Then we have Rally Finland winner Pietarinen doing his 2nd WRC2 outing, Huttunen is back with Skoda, Ostberg in a C3, Kalle debuting there, Veiby who is always fast on snow, Katsuta who won last year etc.

Sweden is going to be a good one!

Who knows, Bonato was first supposed (well atleast some entry lists had him as "pro") to do pro entry in Monte but last minute changed it to just regular WRC2.

But there is 2nd C3 in Sweden driven by Tamara Molinaro, guess they could get her data if needed

If someone pays for that they can sure field more cars...

Superb performance indeed, but Sweden's competition will take it up another level for Gus - I didn't expect him to beat Sarrazin and Bonato for pace though, so fair play, he couldn't do more than that.

Actually Bonato was faster than Greensmith until SS8, when Gus took RC2 lead. They continue on a close fight untill the French got his puncture in SS12. Anyway, great job from Greensmith; in previous years he proved to be fast, now let’s hope he’ll manage to keep consistency after MC.

Btw, everybody has now checked Fourmaux eWRC profile and realized his achievement on this rally. It’s too early to say if he’ll be successful as Loeb and Ogier successor or if he’ll be another wasted French talent (like so many after Ogier), but it’s great to see that it’s still possible to show a huge talent on a WRC event without being a wonder teen or spend endless seasons to get noticed.

PS: it’d also be fair to mention De Mevius rally; he was doing surprisingly well (P10, ahead of Fourmaux) until today’s off. Better luck next time (Corsica?).

Also young Nicolas Ciamin in the VW Polo GTI R5 was very impressive:

Especially on the Sunday leg - fastest R5 by far:

serveral problems prevented a top result overall

I had never heard of him before, but he was super impressive. Maybe we're lucky his first name is Adrien and not Sebastien

Somebody please verify if Fourmaux's second name isn't Sebastien

He seemed to have hazard lights on every time he came past me...

Sweden WRC2 list looks great already, potential for some other really competitive ones in Portugal, Corsica, Finland etc.
