Re Solberg - he has a very famous WRC driver father with money and sponsors. He's been in cars since childhood and had the chance to drive all kinds of machines and do lots of events and many km's of testing.
He (and Rovanpera) show exactly what Ingram hasnt had, and why his achievement is all the more remarkable.
Ingram's father hasnt been able to fund him since his first cheap rally car. Since then he's relied on doing well and getting team drives at junior level, then winning prizemoney, and more recently going all over the country promoting himself to sponsors.
In ERC first he had to fight Eurosport to get his U27 prizemoney. Then he was seriously ill in his first year in an R5. This year his main sponsor dropped out at the last minute. Then he lost the U28 €100k prize by 0 3s !
Every rally entry hss been in doubt and there has been no money for testing or repairs in case of a crash. But he has battled on.
Whatever luck he's had, no-one has deserved it more.

Glad those aren’t your words; for a moment I’ve feared for your sanity
Like already said, it’s sad to see the fastest crew loosing once more, but Ingram, Whittock and Toksport surely deserve congrats for achieving the title. Hats off to their ‘never give up’ spirit!
Btw, gravel sections on a tarmac stage can be acceptable but what’s the point of using those V profiled concret roads? Even on a dry day they seem to be worthless and dangerous.Last edited by Rally Power; 11th November 2019 at 17:03.
