1. Check
2. Check - Evans 2 in a row, Mexico and Corsica
3. nope, 6 it was
4. Check
5. almost check to me.. yes, he won the WRC2 Pro title, but would have been more interesting if they hadn't separated the class. Without mistakes he was really fast, but bad luck and mistakes ruined many rallies for him.

1. Half wrong. Last year Tänak won 70 stages, this year 73 stages. Both seasons ended having 13 rallies.
2. Correct. Tuohino, Grönholm, Greensmith, Virtanen, Katsuta.
3. Almost correct. Only seven. Would have been most likely eight had it not been for Evans's injury. (or if you want to be funny, say that no one got a full season because no one started Australia)
4. Wrong. In the end Latvala had more stage wins but less overall points. Meeke was more consistent.
5. Wrong. Happy to be wrong about this, haven't seen any comments like this

1. correct
2. almost, but wrong
3. Breen did, Ostberg drove WRC only in Goodwood Rally Stage and Paddon really unlucky
4. correct
5. correct. Citroen pushed for new regulations and now they announced pulling the plug. More news possibly to follow.
Nothing major here, should predict something more interesting next time.

1. Wrong. Sure technically you could argue it is correct, but not in the way I meant it. Only Greensmith fits the category. Gronholm isn't "new" and the others are really gentlemen drivers at this point. Even though i didn't write it I meant on WRC rallies so Hutunen doesn't count.
2. Correct. Wasn't fastest often but had podium speed on just about every rally.
3. Correct technically, since both had terrible season and ended 6th and 7th.Was thinking one of them would do better so somewhat surprising.
4. Hard to evaluate. Yes Neuville and Sordo noticably improved in Germany and Spain. But Loeb and Mikkelsen did not, so while the average stage times over 3 drivers go up I wouldn't consider it correct.
5. Correct, though Corsica was close and I didn't see it coming.
So 3-3,5/5, one point worse than last year.
